We report the cloning, nucleotide sequence, evolutionary analysis, and intracellular localization of SIG81, a silica-induced cDNA from mouse macrophages. The cDNA encodes a 111-amino acid protein with extensive sequence identity with members of the mammalian cytochrome c oxidase subunit VIIa (COX7a) family. A human SIG81 sequence >80% identical with the mouse cDNA was deducted from homologous sequences in the human expressed tags data base. The deduced aminoterminal region shows features common to mitochondrial targeting sequences. A phylogenetic analysis of the carboxyl-terminal domain homologous to COX7a identifies SIG81 as a divergent member of the family with an ancient origin. Southern blot analysis showed that the mouse genome contains two to three copies of the SIG81 gene. Northern blot analysis revealed that the SIG81 transcript is approximately 1 kb and expressed in every tissue tested, with higher levels of expression observed in kidney and liver. Antibodies raised against a glutathione S-transferase SIG81 fusion protein detected a 13.5-kDa protein that co-fractionates with mitochondrial localized enzymatic activity. Taken together, our data suggest that SIG81 is a novel member of the COX7a family that is constitutively expressed in mouse cells.
