A novel gene, membralin (GeneBank accession number: DQ005958), was cloned from a human ovarian cancer cell line. Human membralin is unique and does not share significant sequence homology with other human genes, only membralins of other species. The gene contains 11 exons which encode at least two spliced variants in human cancer. The long form of membralin (membralin-1) comprises all 11 exons, encoding a protein of 620-amino acids long and the short form of membralin (membralin-3) contains all exons except for exon 10, encoding a protein of 408 amino acids. Expression of different membralin isoforms depends on tissue type. The long form, membralin-1, is expressed in ovarian and colorectal carcinomas but not in breast or pancreatic carcinomas, which express only the short splice form, membralin-3. Membralin-1-GFP fusion protein demonstrates exclusive cytoplasmic localization. Based on quantitative real-time PCR, in situ hybridization and Western blot analysis, membralin was highly expressed in ovarian serous carcinomas as compared to ovarian surface epithelium (P<0.001). Ovarian carcinomas in effusions demonstrated a significantly higher level of membralin expression than in solid tumors (P<0.001). In conclusion, these findings represent the first characterization of human membralin and suggest that membralin is a novel tumor-associated marker in ovarian serous carcinomas."xsd:string |
