We have isolated a novel cDNA from the human fetal brain cDNA library with homology to the Mg2+ -dependent serine/threonine protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) family. The cDNA is 3055 bp in length, and the predicted coding region encodes a 360-amino-acid protein, which shows 99% identity to the PP2C epsilon from rat and mouse. Then we term it human PP2C epsilon gene. The gene is mapped to chromosome 3q26.1 and contains 4 exons. RT-PCR analysis shows that the PP2C epsilon is widely expressed in human tissues and the expression levels in heart, placenta, lung, liver, kidney, and pancreas are relatively high.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007438 Introns Sequences of DNA in the genes that are located between the EXONS. They are transcribed along with the exons but are removed from the primary gene transcript by RNA SPLICING to leave mature RNA. Some introns code for separate genes.
