Scientific Background: | Tapasin is a 48 kDa glycoprotein which is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and is required for efficient peptide binding to TAP (Transporter associated with antigen processing). TAP binds peptides in its cytosolic part and subsequently translocates the peptides into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum where assembly of MHC class I and peptide takes place. |
