Gene structure and amino acid sequence of the human cone photoreceptor cGMP-phosphodiesterase alpha' subunit (PDEA2) and its chromosomal localization to 10q24.
The genomic organization and nucleotide structure of the human cone photoreceptor cGMP phosphodiesterase alpha'-subunit (alpha'-PDE) gene (PDEA2) as well as its chromosomal localization have been determined. This gene, which spans about 48 kb, consists of 22 exons and codes for an 858-amino-acid protein. The alpha'-PDE gene maps to human chromosome 10q24. Its coding region shows about 90% nucleotide identity and 93% amino acid identity with the corresponding region of the bovine gene. The intron-exon organization of the genes encoding human cone alpha'-PDE and rod beta-PDE are very similar, suggesting that these proteins have a close phylogenetic relationship and probably a common origin.
