Tumor antigen protein SART-3 and tumor antigen peptides thereof
View Patent ↗A novel tumor antigen protein and gene therefor, tumor antigen peptides derived from said tumor antigen protein or derivatives thereof as well as medicaments, prophylactics, or diagnostics for tumors using such tumor substances in vitro or in vitro are provided.
1. An isolated tumor antigen peptide that is a fragment of a protein consisting of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2, where the fragment comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3 and binds to an HLA-A24 antigen and is recognized by cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
2. The isolated tumor antigen peptide according to claim 1 consisting of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3.
3. A pharmaceutical composition for treating tumors, which comprises as an active ingredient the tumor antigen peptide according to claim 1 or 2 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
4. A recombinant polypeptide produced by expressing a recombinant DNA comprising a polynucleotide that encodes the tumor antigen peptide according to claim 1 or 2 .
5. A pharmaceutical composition for treating a tumor, which comprises as an active ingredient the recombinant polypeptide of claim 4 , in an amount effective for treating said tumor and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
6. A diagnostic agent for tumors, which comprises the tumor antigen peptide according to claim 1 or 2 .
7. A diagnostic agent for tumors, which comprises the recombinant polypeptide of claim 4 .
