ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to nucleic acid molecules coding for a tumor rejection antigen precursor. Specifically, the tumor rejection antigen precursor, or "TRAP", is processed into at least one tumor rejection antigen, which is presented by HLA-A2 molecules. Ramifications of the discovery are also set forth.
