Background
Mpg-1 (macrophage-specific gene, MSG, MPS1) is originally cloned from a macrophage cDNA library. Transcripts of Mpg-1 are found at a high level in mature human and murine macrophages and at a moderate level in certain myelomonocytic cell lines. Mpg-1-specific transcript was not detected in a wide variety of other tissues and cell lines. The predicted 669-amino acid Mpg-1-encoded protein has potential glycosylation and phosphorylation sites in addition to a signal sequence. The predicted molecular weight of the core protein is 71 to 74 kDa. Mpg-1 may share a distant ancestry to perforin. The function of Mpg-1 is unknown.
