Antigen presentation to cytotoxic T lymphocytes via major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC I) molecules depends on the heterodimeric transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP). For efficient antigen supply to MHC I molecules in the ER, TAP assembles a macromolecular peptide-loading complex (PLC) by recruiting tapasin. In evolution, TAP appeared together with effector cells of a...
TAP1 and TAP2 genes encode heterodimeric molecule involved in endogenous antigen processing. The present study was undertaken to find out the possible association between TAP1 and TAP2 polymorphisms and risk of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in a sample of Iranian population. Polymorphisms of TAP1 (rs1057141, rs1135216) and TAP2 (rs2228396, rs241447, rs67511411, rs141555015) were determined in 17...
The major histocompatibility complex-encoded transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) is required for the efficient presentation of cytosolic antigens to class I-restricted T cells. TAP is thought to be formed by the interaction of two gene products, termed TAP1 and TAP2. We find that TAPs consisting either of human subunits, or mouse TAP1 and human TAP2, facilitate the presentation...
TAP translocates virus-derived peptides from the cytosol into the endoplasmic reticulum, where the peptides are loaded onto MHC class I molecules. This process is crucial for the detection of virus-infected cells by CTL that recognize the MHC class I-peptide complexes at the cell surface. The varicellovirus bovine herpesvirus 1 encodes a protein, UL49.5, that acts as a potent inhibitor of TAP. ...
In accordance with the key role of MHC class I molecules in the adaptive immune response against viruses, they are expressed by most cells, and their expression can be enhanced by cytokines. The assembly and cell surface expression of class I complexes depend on a continuous peptide supply. The peptides are generated mainly by the proteasome and are transported to the endoplasmic reticulum by a...
The killing of natural killer (NK) cells is regulated by activating and inhibitory NK receptors that recognize mainly class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins. In transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP2)-deficient patients, killing of autologous cells by NK cells is therefore expected. However, none of the TAP2-deficient patients studied so far have suffered from imm...
The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter TAP translocates peptides from the cytosol to awaiting MHC class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum. TAP is made up of the TAP1 and TAP2 polypeptides, which each possess a nucleotide binding domain (NBD). However, the role of ATP in peptide binding and translocation is poorly understood. We present biochemical and functional evidence that the NBD...
The transporter 2, ATP-binding cassette, subfamily B (TAP2) is involved in the transport of antigenic peptides to HLA molecules. Coding TAP2 polymorphisms shows a strong association with type 1 diabetes, but it is not clear whether this association may be entirely due to linkage disequilibrium with HLA DR and DQ. Functionally, rat Tap2 nonsynonymous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) conf...
The transporter associated with Ag processing (TAP) translocates antigenic peptides into the endoplasmic reticulum for binding onto MHC class I (MHC I) molecules. Tapasin organizes a peptide-loading complex (PLC) by recruiting MHC I and accessory chaperones to the N-terminal regions (N domains) of the TAP subunits TAP1 and TAP2. To investigate the function of the tapasin-docking sites of TAP in...
Using the baculovirus expression system the gene products of human tap1 and tap2 were over-expressed as wild-type as well as oligohistidine fusion proteins in Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) insect cells. Both gene products were co-expressed within the same cells and were found enriched in microsomal membranes. Immunoprecipitation and immobilized metal affinity chromatography revealed complex forma...
