ABSTRACT:
A nucleic acid molecule which codes for a tumor rejection antigen precursor which is in turn processed to an antigen presented by HLA-B44 molecule is described. The antigen is also described. These materials are useful in diagnostic and therapeutic methodologies. The tumor rejection antigen precursor is not tyrosinase, which has previously been identified as a tumor rejection antigen precursor processed to an antigen presented by HLA-B44.
