✦ Synopsis
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 preparation does not protect against challenge with another SV40-induced BALBk sarcoma VLM which, however, shares a group-specific T A T A with mKSA. The antigen also does not immunize against challenge with the methylcholanthrene-induced sarcomas of BALB/c mice, Meth A, CI-4, Cll-7 and Cll-10, each of which has its own unique TATA. Binding assays, using EUSA, failed to detect any SV40 antigen in the antigen preparation despite the fact that the large T antigen of SV40 (or fragments of it) constitutes the immunodominant T A T A of mKSA.

## Abstract The subcellular distribution of the tumor‐associated transplantation antigens (TATAs) of two highly immunogenic methylcholanthrene‐induced sarcomas, Meth A and CI‐4, were compared. Most of the TATA of CI‐4 was found in the soluble fraction (cytosol) of the cell while the TATA from Meth
