- An antigen is a foreign substance to the body that induces an immune response.
- a “neoantigen” refers to a class of tumor antigens which arise from tumor-specific changes in proteins.
- Neoantigens encompass, but are not limited to, tumor antigens which arise from, for example, a substitution in a protein sequence, a frame shift mutation, a fusion polypeptide, an in-frame deletion, an insertion, and expression of an endogenous retroviral polypeptide.
- a “neoepitope” refers to an epitope that is not present in a reference, such as a non- diseased cell, e.g., a non-cancerous cell or a germline cell, but is found in a diseased cell, e.g., a cancer cell.
- a “mutation” refers to a change of or a difference in a nucleic acid sequence (e.g., a nucleotide substitution, addition or deletion) compared to a reference nucleic acid.
- a “somatic mutation” can occur in any of the cells of the body except the germ cells (sperm and egg) and are not passed on to children.
- a mutation is a non-synonymous mutation.
- a “non- synonymous mutation” refers to a mutation, for (e.g., a nucleotide substitution), which does result in an amino acid change such as an amino acid substitution in the translation product.
- a “frameshift” occurs when a mutation disrupts the normal phase of a gene’s codon periodicity (also known as “reading frame”), resulting in translation of a non-native protein sequence. It is possible for different mutations in a gene to achieve the same altered reading frame.
- Antigen processing refers to the degradation of a polypeptide or antigen into procession products, which are fragments of said polypeptide or antigen (e.g., the degradation of a polypeptide into peptides) and the association of one or more of these fragments (e.g., via binding) with MHC molecules for presentation by cells, for example, antigen presenting cells, to specific T cells.
- An “antigen presenting cell” refers to a cell which presents peptide fragments of protein antigens in association with MHC molecules on its cell surface.
