CTAG1A - cancer/testis antigen 1A Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as ESO1; CT6.1; LAGE-2; LAGE2A; NY-ESO-1

Gene ID: 246100 | Gene type: protein coding

About CTAG1A

Cytogenetic location: Xq28 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:154,585,133-154,586,816 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 171 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Restricted expression toward testis (RPKM 4.4).

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a tumor cell antigen found in various types of cancers, which makes it a good candidate for a Cancer vaccine. This gene is also highly expressed in normal ovary and testis tissues. An identical copy of this gene is found on the same chromosome. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
