Disease relevance of CALR3

  • Using the dot-blot method, we were able to detect C. rectus using the CRT-2 antibody when as few as 103 organisms were present in a subgingival dental plaque sample [1].
  • CRT2 was identified as a new cancer-testis antigen expressed in elongated spermatids of testis and in cancer tissues (particularly melanoma) that is recognized by serum IgG from cancer patients [2].
 

High impact information on CALR3

  • Translation of the CRT2 coding sequence reveals a new protein with regions of perfect homology with the CRT1 amino-acid sequence [3].
