MAGE FUSION PROTEIN COMPRISING MAGE ANTIGEN AND A FUSION PARTNER, AND NUCLEIC ACID SEQUENCES ENCODING THEM, AND USES THEREOF

摘要

The present invention relates to novel proteins and to their production, from the MAGE family. In particular, to a MAGE protein fused to an immunological fusion partner, such as Lipoprotein D. Such antigens may be formulated to provide vaccines for the treatment of a range of tumours. Novel methods for purifying MAGE proteins are also provided.
