FIELD: biotechnologies.
SUBSTANCE: peptide is presented, which is produced from protein WT1, which is able to bind with a molecule HLA-A*1101 and to induce CTL, having a sequence SEQ ID NO:6 or SEQ ID NO:7, presented in the description. Besides, a peptide dimer is described, which is used for the same purposes and comprises two peptide monomers selected from a group of peptides that includes SEQ ID NO:7, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:8 and SEQ ID NO:9, available in the description. A nucleic acid is presented, which codes the specified peptide and the expression vector, which contains the specified nucleic acid. A pharmaceutical composition is described for treatment or prevention of cancer of an individual, positive by HLA-A*1101, which contains the specified peptide, nucleic acid or vector. A WT1-specific CTL is described, which is induced by the specified peptide or dimer, and an antigen-presenting cell that presents the peptide. There is data on the method and set for induction of the WT1-specific CTL and for induction of the antigen-presenting cell. The method of in vitro diagnostics of cancer in an individual positive by HLA-A*1101 is presented, which includes incubation of the specified CTL or the antigen-presenting cell with a sample received from an individual positive by HLA-A*1101, and detection of the quantity of the specified CTL or antigen-presenting cell.
EFFECT: invention makes it possible to expand assortment of peptides that bind with HLA-A*1101 and are produced from the antigen WT1.
