TRP-2: 180-188 Peptide
A recombinant peptide consisting of amino acid residues 180 to 188 of the tyrosinase-related protein 2 (TRP2). Expressed by cells of melanocyte origin, TRP2 is an enzyme involved in the process that converts tyrosinase to melanin pigments. Vaccination with TRP-2: 180-188 peptide may induce cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses to melanoma cells. (NCI04)
