The human protein CD163 (M130) is a member of the scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) superfamily, which is exclusively expressed by monocytes and macrophages. Here, we investigated the genomic organization and the chromosomal localization of the human CD163 gene. The CD163 gene is composed of 17 exons and 16 introns and spans over 35 kb. Each of its nine SRCR domains is encoded by a separate exon, which is similar to other members of the group B SRCR subfamily. Two cytoplasmic variants of CD163 arise from alternative splicing of intron 15, while a truncated and an extracellular variant results from alternative splicing of intron 5 or intron 7, respectively. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization we mapped this gene to the human chromosome 12p13. The transcription initiation sites of the CD163 gene were determined and the 5'-flanking region was sequenced. The nucleotide analysis revealed several putative binding sites for transcription factors, which have been shown to play an important role in myeloid specific gene expression. In addition, we identified a L1 element located 1.4 kb upstream of the major transcription initiation site.
