The nucleotide sequences of cDNAs encoding human and mouse homologous for rat pancreatitis-associated protein (PAP) (J. Iovanna et al. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 24664-24669) were determined. The expression level of PAP mRNA was very low in healthy pancreas, but an unexpectedly high level was found in normal small intestine.
