Abstract

A 64 kilodalton (kDa) surface protein was isolated from the water-extracted materials from Mycobacterium bovis strain BCG, the determinants of which are antigenically shared by a 64 kDa major surface antigenic component of line 10 hepatoma cells. The 64 kDa protein showed anti-line 10 tumor activity in pre-immunized guinea pigs, and this suggests that the BCG 64 kDa protein is probably identical with the tumor specific antigen.
