A tumor rejection antigen (TATA), obtained from the cytosol of a BALB/c mKSA sarcoma induced by SV40 virus, has been partially purified. This partially purified antigen is strikingly immunogenic against mKSA, providing more than 90% inhibition of growth at levels of 10-30 pg. This antigen preparatio

✦ Synopsis
Polypeptides containing the tumour antigenic determinant present on the external domain of a membrane antigen of the 3-4 benzpyrene-induced rat fibrosarcoma HSN have been isolated and purified. Following cleavage from intact cells with trypsin, the peptides were purified by irnmunoaffinity chromatography and SDS-PAGE. Three polypeptides of molecular weight 120,45 and 42 kDa were obtained that bound the specific rat monoclonal antibody (MAb) 11/160 in Western blots. Chemical analyses of the 45-kDa fragment yielded the following sequence:

Two tumor-specific antigens, with molecular weights of approximately 82 and 86 kDa, have been isolated and purified to apparent homogeneity from the methylcholanthrene-induced sarcoma, Cll-7. The method of purification used was essentially that previously employed for the isolation of the 82-and 86-
