  • antigens in malignant cells may be used as vaccines to induce tumour-specific cell-mediated immunity (Pardoll, D.W., Nature 369, 357- 358 (1994)) and work has focussed on various sources of antigens, including viral (Papadopoulos, E.B., et al., N.Engl. J. Med. 330, 1185-1191(1994); Feitkamp, M.C.W., et al., Eur. J. Immun. 23, 2242-2249 (1993), fetal and tissue-specific antigens (Pardoll, D.W., 1994 supra.), and point mutations (Peace, D.J., et al., J. Exp. Med. 179, 473-479 (1994).

  • fragments can be presented at the surface of somatic cells in association with MHC Class 1 molecules.
  • the mechanism is known as antigen presentation. It is thought that viral or host proteins are made on free ribosomes in the cytosol. These proteins are then fragmented by proteolytic enzymes and the peptide fragments transported by a signal-independent mechanism into a compartment of the host cell (probably the endoplasmic reticulum) where they bind to the MHC Class 1 molecules. This complex is transported to the cell surface and the peptide is displayed at the cell surface to circulating cytotoxic lymphocytes.
  • the mechanism allows the immune system to detect intracellular viral antigens early in infections. It is also responsible for the rejection of unrelated organs after transplantation. Although the mechanism probably evolved to deal with intracellular infectious agents, it is possible that this mechanism may be active in

  • translation into the second and third reading frames and peptide/polypeptide fragments deriving from such a mutant protein may be of value as an active ingredient of a pharmaceutical to invoke an immune response against the mutant protein.
  • the new polypeptides and peptides may be of value in the formulation of vaccines.

This mixture was heated to 95°C for 5 mins, then cooled to 80°C. Five units of Stratagene P.F.U were then added. PCR was performed with 35 cycles consisting of 5 sec. at 92°C, 1 min at 58°C and 1 min. at 72°C.
