Abstract excerpt
We generated mutants of the transporter associated with antigen-processing subunits TAP1 and TAP2 that were altered at the conserved lysine residue in the Walker A motifs of the nucleotide binding domains (NBD). In other ATP binding cassette transporters, mutations of the lysine have been shown to reduce or abrogate the ATP hydrolysis activity and in some cases impair nucleotide binding. Mutants TAP1(K544M) and...
