Abstract excerpt
Most antigenic peptides are generated by proteasomes in the cytosol and are transported by the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) into the endoplasmic reticulum, where they bind with nascent major histocompatibilitiy complex class I molecule (MHC-I). Although the overall process of peptide-MHC-I complex assembly is well studied, the mechanism by which free peptides are delivered from TAP to...
