DSE (gene)

Dermatan-sulfate epimerase is an is_associated_with::enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DSE is_associated_with::gene.

The protein encoded by this gene is a tumor-rejection is_associated_with::antigen. This antigen possesses tumor is_associated_with::epitopes capable of inducing is_associated_with::HLA-A24-restricted and tumor-specific cytotoxic is_associated_with::T lymphocytes in cancer patients and may be useful for specific is_associated_with::immunotherapy. This gene product is localized to the is_associated_with::endoplasmic reticulum. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
