Miscellaneous. This gene belongs to a multigene family expressed in a large variety of tumors whereas in normal tissues, expression is restricted to germ cells. These genes organized in clustered repeats, have a high degree of predicted sequence identity, but differ by scattered single nucleotide substitution. Their sequences contain either the antigenic peptide YYWPRPRRY or YRPRPRRY which is recognized by cytotoxic T-cells.
Similarity. Belongs to the GAGE family.
