Abstract
Tum- comprises a class of genes, mutation of which in P815 tumor cells has led to the acquisition of new cytotoxic T cell-recognized epitopes. The cells carrying the mutant alleles have impaired tumorigenicity compared with their progenitors due to in vivo induction of a cytotoxic T-cell response specific for tum- antigens. Two tum- genes, P91A and P35B, were found to be single copy loci mapping to chromosomes 11 and 15 respectively. A third, P198, was found to map to chromosome 7 and to be a member of a small gene family with other members on chromosomes 13, 14, and 15. Multiple P198-related sequences were found in other mammalian species suggesting the P198 related gene family is a general feature of mammalian genomes.
