The porcine aminopeptidase N (PEPN) gene was shown to be syntenic with the porcine major histocompatibility complex (SLA) using Southern blot analysis of a pig x mouse hybrid cell panel. Regional localization of the PEPN gene to 7cen----q21 was performed by in situ hybridization. The results suggest that synteny of the genes for mannose phosphate isomerase and PEPN is conserved in pig and man.
