This peptide is derived from tyrosinase-related protein 2 (TRP2) residues 180-188. TRP2 belongs to the melanocyte differentiation antigens and has been implicated as a target for immunotherapy of human as well as murine melanoma. Studies show that this TRP2 derived peptide can bind to mouse and human MHC class I molecules. Immunization with TRP2 peptide loaded dendritic cells (DCs) results in effective induction of antitumor immunity.
