Seprase is a homodimeric 170-kDa integral membrane gelatinase that is related to the ectoenzyme dipeptidyl peptidase IV. We have identified an alternatively spliced seprase messenger from the human melanoma cell line LOX that encodes a novel truncated isoform, seprase-s. The splice variant mRNA is generated by an out-of-frame deletion of a 1223-base pair exonic region that encodes part of the cytoplasmic tail, transmembrane, and the membrane progimal-central regions of the extracellular domain (Val(5) through Ser(412)) of the seprase 97-kDa subunit (seprase-l). The seprase-s mRNA has an elongated 5' leader (548 nucleotides) that harbors at least two upstream open reading frames that inhibit seprase-s expression from a downstream major open reading frame. Deletion mutagenesis of the wild type splice variant cDNA confirms that initiation of the seprase-s coding sequence begins with an ATG codon that corresponds to Met(522) Of seprase-l, The seprase-s open reading frame encodes a 239-amino acid polypeptide with an M-r similar to 27,000 that precisely overlaps the carboxyl-terminal catalytic region of seprase-l.
