Difference between MLANA and Melanoma

MLANA vs. Melanoma

Protein melan-A also known as melanoma antigen recognized by T cells 1 or MART-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MLANA o "MALENA" gene. Melanoma, also known as malignant melanoma, is a type of cancer that develops from the pigment-containing cells known as melanocytes.

Similarities between MLANA and Melanoma

MLANA and Melanoma have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Gene, Melanocyte, National Cancer Institute, Nevus, Protein, T cell.
