Abstract: | The cDNA sequence of human liver 70 kDa peroxisomal membrane protein (hPMP70) was determined. The nucleotide sequence contains an open reading frame of 1977 base pairs and encodes an amino acid sequence of 659 residues which exhibits 95.0% identity with that of rat liver PMP70. hPMP70 shares close similarity to the members of a superfamily of ATP-binding transport proteins. |
