    Abstract: The present invention provides a nucleic acid sequence encoding a melanoma antigen recognized by T lymphocytes, designated MART-1. This invention further relates to bioassays using the nucleic acid sequence, protein or antibodies of this invention to diagnose, assess or prognoses a mammal afflicted with melanoma or metastata melanoma. This invention also provides immunogenic peptides derived from the MART-1 melanoma antigen and a second melanoma antigen designated gp100. This invention further provides immunogenic peptides derived from the MART-1 melanoma antigen or gp100 antigen which have been modified to enhance their immunogenicity. The proteins and peptides provided can serve as an immunogen or vaccine to prevent or treat melanoma.

    Abstract translation: 本发明提供编码被称为MART-1的T淋巴细胞识别的黑素瘤抗原的核酸序列。 本发明还涉及使用本发明的核酸序列,蛋白质或抗体诊断,评估或预测患有黑素瘤或转移性黑素瘤的哺乳动物的生物测定。 本发明还提供衍生自MART-1黑素瘤抗原的免疫原性肽和称为gp100的第二黑素瘤抗原。 本发明还提供衍生自MART-1黑素瘤抗原或gp100抗原的免疫原性肽,其已被修饰以增强其免疫原性。 所提供的蛋白质和肽可以作为预防或治疗黑素瘤的免疫原或疫苗。
