Leucine-rich acidic nuclear protein (LANP) is a member of the leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) superfamily. Here we report on a human homologue of LANP, encoded by the gene ANP32E (alias LANPL). The gene was cloned and identified during large-scale sequencing analysis of a human fetal brain cDNA library. The human protein shared 70% amino acid identity with rat LANP. According to bioinformatics analysis, ANP32E is located on chromosome 1q22. RT-PCR analysis indicates that ANP32E was expressed in human peripheral blood leukocytes, colon, small intestine, prostate, thymus, spleen, skeletal muscle, liver and kidney.
富含亮氨酸的酸性核蛋白(LANP)是富含亮氨酸重复序列(LRR)超家族的成员。在此,我们报告由基因ANP32E(别名LANPL)编码的LANP的人类同源物。该基因是在对人类胎儿脑cDNA文库进行大规模测序分析过程中克隆和鉴定的。人类蛋白质与大鼠LANP具有70%的氨基酸同一性。根据生物信息学分析,ANP32E位于1号染色体的1q22。逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)分析表明,ANP32E在人类外周血白细胞、结肠、小肠、前列腺、胸腺、脾脏、骨骼肌、肝脏和肾脏中表达。
