Abstract excerpt
Transforming acidic coiled-coil (TACC) proteins are centrosome and microtubule-associated proteins that are essential for mitotic spindle function. We identified TACC1 as an immunogenic protein and a potential tumor antigen by applying serological identification of antigens by recombinant expression cloning (SEREX) technique to screen a gastric cancer cDNA library. The 5'RLM-RACE and reverse transcriptase...
