Antibodies are purified by peptide affinity chromatography.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nTAP-associated glycoprotein (Tapasin\/TAPBP) is a type-I transmembrane ER glycoprotein encoded by an MHC-linked gene. Tapasin plays a critical role in the MHC class I-restricted antigen processing and presentation pathway. Research studies have demonstrated that Tapasin is an IFNγ-inducible component of the TAP-1\/2 peptide transporter complex and, within the ER lumen, facilitates the optimization of the peptide repertoire that is loaded onto MHC class I molecules (1-5). Downregulation of Tapasin and MHC class I expression has been observed in human tumors and serves as a prominent mechanism of tumor immune escape (6-9).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nNGS-17; NGS17; TAP binding protein; TAP binding protein (tapasin); TAP-associated protein; TAP-binding protein; TAPA; Tapasin; TAPBP; TPN; TPSN\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 48\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799982952617,"sku":"88644S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-88644s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
