Abstract excerpt
Presentation of antigenic peptides by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules depends on translocation of cytosolic peptides into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by transporters associated with antigen processing (TAP). Peptide transport by TAP is thought to include at least two steps: initial binding of peptide to TAP, and its subsequent translocation requiring ATP hydrolysis. These events can be...
