The human wild-type (wt) p53.264-272 peptide is a universal tumor antigen and recognized by HLA-A\*0201 (A2.1)-restricted CTL. Generation of this epitope by constitutive 20S proteasomes is prevented by a p53 R to H hotspot mutation at the C-terminal flanking residue 273. We report on the impact of t
Mutant p21-ras proteins contain sequences that distinguish them from normal ras, and represent unique epitopes for T-cell recognition of antigen-bearing tumour cells. Here, we examined the capacity of CD4 Ψ and CD8 Ψ T cells, generated simultaneously by mutant-ras-peptide vaccination of a pancreatic
