Recently, we cloned a cDNA encoding a novel mouse protein, named A-C1, by differential display between two mouse cell lines, embryonic fibroblast C3H10T1/2 and chondrogenic ATDC5. Mouse A-C1 has homology with a ras-responsive gene, rat Ha-rev107 (Hrasls), and modulates a Ha-ras-mediated signaling pathway. Here, we report a cDNA encoding a human homolog of mouse A-C1. The deduced amino acid sequence of human A-C1 consists of 168 amino acids, and shows 83% identity with that of mouse A-C1. Human A-C1 mRNA was expressed in skeletal muscle, testis, heart, brain, and thyroid in vivo. Moreover, expression of human A-C1 mRNA was detected at a high level in human osteosarcoma-derived U2OS cells in vitro. By FISH analysis the human A-C1 gene (HRASLS) was mapped to human chromosome 3q28--> q29.
