Amino Acid Sequence: AAGIGILTV
Applications: Stimulation of human MART-1-specific CD8+ T cells.
Background: MART-1 (also known as Melan A) is a differentiation antigen expressed at the surface of melanocytes. A peptide fragment of the protein is found bound to MHC complexes that are recognized by cytotoxic T cells. MART-1 is found in most skin cancers, including melanomas, and is used as a biomarker for diagnostic purposes. Since the expression of the protein is restricted to melanocytes and is not found in other tissues, MART-1 is an attractive target for cancer vaccines and adoptive cell therapy. MART-1 peptide 27-35 is a fragment commonly associated with MHC and recognized by T cell receptors.
Description: The Melanoma-associated antigen recognized by T cells-1 (MART-1) peptide (27-35, AAGIGILTV) is a peptide corresponding to MART-1 amino acids 27-35. This peptide has lower binding affinity towards MART-1-specific T cells than the slightly longer MART-1 peptide (26-35, EAAGIGILTV; BPS Bioscience #78759)
