| Description | G280-9 acetate is a common melanoma gp100 epitope restricted by MHC-associated HLA-A2. The G280-9 sequence is unique because it could be recognized by cytotoxic T lymphocytes at very low concentrations, however it shows low total immunogenicity that may be attributable to relatively low affinity of this peptide for the HLA-A2. |
