A cDNA that encodes the peptide core of the secretory granule proteoglycan of the human promyelocytic leukemic cell line, HL-60, has been isolated and analyzed. When human genomic DNA was digested and probed under conditions of low stringency with a rat cDNA that encodes a Mr = 18,600 serine/glycine-rich proteoglycan peptide core in L2 yolk sac tumor cells (Bourdon, M. A., Oldberg, A., Pierschbacher, M., and Ruoslahti, E. (1985) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 82, 1321-1325) and basophilic leukemia-1 cells (Avraham, S., Stevens, R. L., Gartner, M. C., Austen, K. F., Lalley, P. A., and Weis, J. H. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 7292-7296), a number of DNA fragments were identified. A HL-60 cell-derived cDNA library was therefore screened under conditions of low stringency with the rat probe to identify and isolate a human homologue of this rat proteoglycan peptide core. Analysis of the resulting human cDNA clones indicated that the proteoglycan peptide core that is expressed in HL-60 cells is Mr = 17,600 and contains an 18-amino acid glycosaminoglycan attachment region that consists primarily of alternating serin and glycine. Northern blot analysis of total RNA probed with the human cDNA revealed that the major message for this proteoglycan peptide core in HL-60 cells is approximately 1.3 kilobase pairs in size. When a Southern blot of digested human genomic DNA was probed with the human cDNA, three bands of approximately 6, 9, and 12 kilobase pairs were detected. However, when the Southern blot was probed with the XmnI----3' fragment of this human cDNA, one prominent band was detected, indicating that a single gene encodes this protein in the human. Analysis of the DNA from human/mouse and human/hamster somatic cell hybrids probed with the human cDNA demonstrated that the gene that encodes this molecule resides on human chromosome 10. Because the proteoglycans that are present in the secretory granules of different types of rat and mouse mast cells possess small peptide cores that are rich in serine and glycine, we propose that this HL-60 cell-3 derived cDNA encodes the peptide core of the proteoglycan that is expressed in the secretory granules of this human promyelocytic cell.
