Structure and analysis of the bovine atrial natriuretic peptide precursor gene.

The isolation and sequence analysis of the gene encoding the bovine atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) precursor is described. The bovine-ANP coding sequences are located on three exons which are interrupted by two intervening sequences. Comparison of the bovine, human, rat and mouse ANP gene sequences reveals a common organization of introns and exons and a high degree of sequence homology in the 5'-flanking and coding regions. Examination of the pre-proANP amino acid sequence derived from the bovine gene with those from rat, mouse and human, indicates a high degree of sequence homology in both the amino-terminal and biologically-active carboxy-terminal ANP region. The latter region in the bovine sequence resembles its human counterpart except for a carboxy-terminal Arg- Arg dipeptide.[1]
