Therapeutic Tyrosinase-Related Protein-1 Definition
A recombinant peptide of the tyrosinase-related protein 1 (TRP1) used in vaccine therapy. Expressed by cells of melanocyte origin, TRP1 is an enzyme involved in the process that converts tyrosinase to melanin pigments. Vaccination with TRP1 may stimulate cytotoxic T cell responses to melanoma cells.
