Uroguanylin, a member of the guanylin peptide family, is a novel peptide regulator in intestinal salt and water transport. We isolated the gene for uroguanylin from a human genomic library and determined its structure. This gene consists of three exons and two introns within an overall length of 2.5 kb. The 5' flanking region has TATA and CAAT boxes. The gene also has multiple binding sites for promoter-specific transcription factor, activator protein-1, and activator protein-2, and a cAMP-regulated enhancer element. Fluorescence in situ hybridization showed the uroguanylin gene at human chromosome 1p33-p34. RNA blot analysis showed that human uroguanylin mRNA is expressed in the gastric fundus and pylorus as well as in the intestine.
