Using a combination of hybridization of
PAC
to a cDNA library and RACE technique, we isolated a novel cDNA, designated as
C17orf25
(Chromosome 17 open reading frame 25, previously named it HC71A), from the deletion region on chromosome 17p13.3. The cDNA encodes a protein of 313 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 34.8 kDa.
C17orf25
is divided into 10 exons and 9 introns, spanning 23 kb of genomic DNA. Northern blot analysis showed that the mRNA expression of
C17orf25
was decreased in hepatocellular carcinoma samples as compared to adjacent noncancerous liver tissues from the same patients. The transfection of
C17orf25
into the hepatocellular carcinoma cell SMMC7721 and overexpression could inhibit the cell growth. The above results indicate that
C17orf25
is a novel human gene, and the cloning and preliminary characterization of
C17orf25
is a prerequisite for further functional analysis of this novel gene in human hepatocellular carcinoma.
