POLYPEPTIDE SPECIFIC TO LIVER CANCER, POLYNUCLEOTIDE ENCODING THE POLYPEPTIDE AND RNA MOLECULE INHIBITING THE EXPRESSION OF THE POLYPEPTIDE

摘要

[PROBLEMS] To provide a polypeptide specific to liver cancer, a polynucleotide encoding the polypeptide, and an RNA molecule inhibiting the expression of the polypeptide. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] A polypeptide containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1; a polypeptide having a homology of at least 80% with the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1 and having an immunogenicity of inducing the production of an antibody against a polypeptide containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1; nucleotide fragments thereof; a polynucleotide encoding the above polypeptide and its fragment; and an RNA molecule having a partial sequence corresponding to an mRNA encoding a polypeptide containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1.
