pubmed:abstractText
Two alternatively spliced transcripts, psiHLAO1 and psiHLAO2, of a copper-containing monoamine oxidase pseudogene have been isolated from a human-liver cDNA library. The larger psiHLAO1 cDNA (2073bp) contains a 5'-flanking segment of 134bp, followed by an apparent open reading frame (ORF) of 1725bp. The deduced amino acid sequence of this ORF (574 residues) shares 81.0% similarity with the 763-residue monoamine oxidase from human placenta (HPAO) (the N-terminal 533 residues of psiHLAO1 share 86.7% similarity with HPAO). The psiHLAO1 ORF is interrupted by an in-frame stop codon corresponding to amino acid 225 and terminates within a type S(a) dimeric Alu repeat sequence. psiHLAO2 appears to be an alternatively spliced variant of psiHLAO1 that has 413 bases of psiHLAO1 excised according to the 'GT-AG' rule. The slightly longer 3' end of the psiHLAO2 transcript shows that the Alu repeat is followed by an 11-bp poly(A) tract that, in turn, is followed by an AT-rich (81%) sequence of 105bp. A reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) protocol was used to confirm that both psiHLAO1 and psiHLAO2 are transcribed in human liver and placenta. A search of the expressed sequence tag (EST) database indicates that, like HPAO, psiHLAO derives also from the region 17q21 of the human genome.
