This gene encodes an autoimmunogenic tumor antigen that belongs to the ESO/LAGE family of cancer-testis antigens. This protein is expressed in a wide array of cancers including melanoma, breast cancer, bladder cancer and prostate cancer. This protein is also expressed in normal testis tissue. An alternative open reading frame product of this gene has been described in PMID:10399963. This alternate protein, termed CAMEL, is a tumor antigen that is recognized by melanoma-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

这个基因编码属于该ESO / LAGE家族癌症 - 睾丸抗原的autoimmunogenic肿瘤抗原。这种蛋白是在广泛的癌症,包括黑色素瘤,乳腺癌,膀胱癌和前列腺癌中表达。这种蛋白也以正常睾丸组织中表达。该基因的可替代开放阅读框架产品已在PMID已经描述:10399963。此替代的蛋白质,称为CAMEL,是受特定黑素瘤细胞毒性T淋巴细胞识别的肿瘤抗原。选择性剪接结果在多个抄本变形。 [由RefSeq的,2013年9月提供]
