Abstract excerpt
The current model of antigen assembly with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules posits that interactions between the tapasin N-terminal immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain and the MHC class I peptide-binding groove permit tapasin to regulate antigen selection. Much less is known regarding interactions that might involve the tapasin C-terminal Ig-like domain. Additionally, the tapasin...
