General description
MAGEA4 (Melanoma antigen family A 4) is a member of Cancer testis antigens (CTAs) family Class I and is expressed in only male germ cells. It is identified by cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) and is upregulated in a variety of tumor cells such as melanomas and lung cancer.
Immunogen
MAGEA4 (NP_002353, 98 a.a. ~ 171 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Biochem/physiol Actions
MAGEA4 (Melanoma antigen family A 4) induces growth in spontaneously transformed normal oral keratinocytes (NOK-SI) by blocking cell cycle at G1 phase as well as p53 mediated apoptosis. Studies have shown it to tumor suppressive in nature. Studies in 160 chronic HCV (hepatitis C virus) Egyptian patients egyptian patients show that this protein has potential as a marker for early detectiont of metastases.
