Description: | This gene encodes an autoimmunogenic tumor antigen thatbelongs to the ESO/LAGE family of cancer-testis antigens. Thisprotein is expressed in a wide array of cancers including melanoma,breast cancer, bladder cancer and prostate cancer. This protein isalso expressed in normal testis tissue. An alternative open readingframe product of this gene has been described in PMID 10399963.This alternate protein, termed CAMEL, is a tumor antigen that isrecognized by melanoma-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes. Alternatesplicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided byRefSeq]. |
Further Information: | This CTAG2 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 122-149 amino acids from the Central region of human CTAG2. |
