human TAP1 (a allotype) and TAP2 (b allotype) genes, recombinant expression using Vaccinia virus (VV) constructs (rVVs encoding A/Puerto Rico/8/34 influenza virus HA and NP under the control of the VV p7.5 promoter) and human T2 an B6 cells, which are deficient for antigen processing, or murine L929 fibroblasts. VV-expressed TAP1 and TAP2 are functional, but only when expressed together | Homo sapiens |

additional information | production of recombinant vaccinia viruses that direct synthesis of the TAP subunits, either individually or together. Virus-encoded TAP is rapidly and efficiently assembles (t1/2 of 5 min or less) by cells and does not spontaneously assemble in detergent extracts. Metabolic labeling with [2-3H]mannose demonstrates that TAP1 (but not TAP2) possesses Asn-linked oligosaccharides, but the lack of binding of [35S]methionine-labeled TAP to concanavalin A-agarose suggests that the glycosylated form represents a minor population of TAP1. The two subunits of the assembled complex present in detergent extracts photolabeled equally with 8-azido-[alpha-32P]ATP. Photolabeling of the two subunits is inhibited in parallel by various di- and trinucleotides, suggesting that their nucleotide binding sites function in a highly similar manner | Homo sapiens |

incubation of detergent extracts at 37°C results in the rapid loss of TAP1 immunoreactivity, indicating either an unusual sensitivity to proteases or an irreversible conformation alteration | Homo sapiens |

Mg2+ | required | Homo sapiens | |
additional information | the enhanced ATP binding observed when Mg2+ is supplemented with Ca21 is consistent with two possibilities: (1) the cytosolic domains possess a Ca2+ binding site in addition to the Mg2+ binding site, and (2) additional Ca2+-dependent factors in the extract contribute to ATP binding to TAP | Homo sapiens |

evolution | TAP1 and TAP2 are members of the ABC transporter family | Homo sapiens |
additional information | the two subunits of the assembled complex present in detergent extracts photolabeled equally with 8-azido-[alpha-32P]ATP. Photolabeling of the two subunits is inhibited in parallel by various di- and trinucleotides, suggesting that their nucleotide binding sites function in a highly similar manner | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) transports short peptides from the cytosol to the endoplasmic reticulum, where peptides assemble with class I molecules of the major histocompatibility complex. TAP is comprised of two subunits, termed TAP1 and TAP2 | Homo sapiens |
