Gene information for GAGE5 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2577
Official gene symbolGAGE5
Full nameG antigen 5
Aliases,CT4.5,
Gene summaryThis gene belongs to a family of genes that are expressed in a variety of tumors but not in normal tissues, except for the testis. The sequences of the family members are highly related but differ by scattered nucleotide substitutions. The antigenic peptide YYWPRPRRY, which is also encoded by several other family members, is recognized by autologous cytolytic T lymphocytes. [provided by RefSeq]
