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. ...
Presentation of intracellularly derived antigenic peptides to T cells requires their assembly together with MHC class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Such peptides are delivered to the ER by an MHC-encoded transporter composed of TAP1 and TAP2 protein delivery. Here, the first alternative splicing of Tap2 is described. The human splice variant, termed Tap2iso, lacks exon 11 and o...
BACKGROUND The role of human papillomavirus (HPV) may be involved in the development of esophageal cancer (EC) and the polymorphic immune response gene transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) may be involved in HPV persistence and subsequent cancer carcinogenesis. The current study aims to provide association evidence for HPV with EC, to investigate TAP1 polymorphisms in EC and ass...
The transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP), which is composed of two subunits (TAP1 and TAP2) that have different biochemical and functional properties, plays a key role in peptide loading and the cell surface expression of HLA class I molecules. Three cases of HLA class I deficiency have previously been shown to result from the absence of a functional TAP2 subunit. In the present...
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...
Objective: To determine the influence of TAP1 and TAP2 alleles in northwestern Colombian patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods: Unselected patients with SLE (n=140) and controls (n=120) matched for sex, age, and ethnicity were analysed. Clinical manifestations, clinical activity, and severity of disease were recorded. Autoantibodies were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbe...
Processing of viral proteins for recognition by CTL involves degradation of the proteins in the cytosol of an infected cell followed by transport of the resulting peptides into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by the TAP1/2 complex. Uncertainty exists over the site of processing of viral envelope (env) proteins since the extracellular domains of env proteins are not present in the cytosol where t...
This study aims to investigate the association between transporter associated with antigen processing 1 gene (TAP1) polymorphism and esophagus cancer in a Han Gansu population. TAP1 637A/G polymorphism was analyzed in 200 Han Gansu patients with esophagus cancer and 100 ethnically matched healthy Gansu population by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). ...
Controversial findings have been reported regarding to the effect of the transporter associated with antigen processing 1 (TAP1) polymorphisms exerted on the atopic diseases susceptibility. To gain a better understanding of the effects of TAP1 polymorphisms on the risk of atopic diseases, a retrospective study was carried out to evaluate the association of the most common TAP1 polymorphisms, rs...
Psoriasis vulgaris is a HLA-associated common and persistent inflammatory skin disease of unknown aetiology. The transporters associated with antigen processing (TAP) genes are polymorphic genes located in the HLA class II region and due to their essential involvement in class I antigen presentation might be additional susceptibility genes to psoriasis. To investigate the possible involvement o...
