The transporters associated with antigen processing 1 and 2 (TAP1 and TAP2) form the TAP complex, which resides on the ER membrane and transports peptides from the cytoplasm into the ER for loading onto MHC class I molecules (1-8). In addition, TAP localized to endosomal membranes is important for cross-presentation by dendritic cells (9,10). IFN-γ produced by T cells and NK cells in response to infection causes upregulation of TAP1 and TAP2, resulting in increased antigen presentation to T cells (11). Some viral proteins inhibit TAP function or downregulate TAP expression, resulting in viral immune evasion (12,13). In addition, investigators have observed reduced TAP expression in a variety of tumor types, and it is thought to be one mechanism for tumor immune evasion (14).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nABC transporter, MHC 2; ABC-transporter; ABC18; ABCB3; Antigen peptide transporter 2; APT2; ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 3; ATP-binding cassette, sub-family B (MDR\/TAP), member 3; D6S217E; peptide supply factor 2; peptide transporter involved in antigen processing 2; peptide transporter PSF2; peptide transporter TAP2; PSF-2; PSF2; really interesting new gene 11 protein; RING11; TAP2; transporter 2, ABC (ATP binding cassette); transporter 2, ATP binding cassette subfamily B member; transporter 2, ATP-binding cassette, sub-family B; transporter 2, ATP-binding cassette, sub-family B (MDR\/TAP); Y1\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 72\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797896417449,"sku":"25657T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-25657t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
