The gene encoding the human puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase (PSA) has been cloned and characterized. The humanPSAgene is composed of 23 exons and 22 introns and spans approximately 40 kb of chromosome 17 at the interval 17q12-21. An analysis of the 5′ end of the humanPSAtranscript reveals that the translational start site corresponds to nt 210 of the humanPSAcDNA, as suggested by RT-PCR, 5′ RACE, and computer analysis of expressed sequence tags. A comparison of the exon/exon boundaries of the humanPSAgene with those of the humanaminopeptidase N(APN) gene shows little conservation, suggesting that the two genes, which are closely related in protein sequence, diverged early during evolution.
