Melanoma Antigen Family C Member 1 (MAGEC1)

Target
MAGEC1
Molecular classification
Cancer/testis antigen, Tumor-associated antigen, Transcription factor
01

Overview

MAGEC1, also known as cancer/testis antigen 7.1 (CT7), is a protein-coding gene and member of the melanoma antigen gene (MAGE) family. It is expressed in a significant proportion of tumors across various histological types but is generally silent in normal tissues except for the testis, making it an attractive target for cancer immunotherapy.
