General annotation (Comments)

Function

Involved in the association of MHC class I with transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) and in the assembly of MHC class I with peptide (peptide loading). Ref.12

Subunit structure

Heterodimer with PDIA3; disulfide-linked. Interacts with TAP1 and is thus a subunit of the TAP complex, also known as the peptide loading complex (PLC). Interaction with TAP1 is TAP2-independent and is required for efficient peptide-TAP interaction. Obligatory mediator for the interaction between newly assembled MHC class I molecules, clareticulin, PDIA3 and TAP. Up to 4 MHC class I/tapasin complexes bind to 1 TAP. Ref.16

Subcellular location

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein Probable.

Tissue specificity

Neutrophils, mostly in fully differentiated cells.

Domain

The N-terminus is required for efficient association with MHC class I molecule and for a stable interaction between MHC I and calreticulin. Binding to TAP is mediated by the C-terminus region. Ref.11

Polymorphism

The 2 alleles of TAPBP; TAPBP*01 (Tapasin*01) (shown here) and TAPBP*02 (Tapasin*02); are in linkage disequilibria with the HLA-DRB1 locus in a Japanese population.

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 Ig-like C1-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAD32924.2 differs from that shown. Reason: Probable cloning artifact.

Alternative products

This entry describes 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: O15533-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: O15533-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     405-448: LSGPSLEDSVGLFLSAFLLLGLFKALGWAAVYLSTCKDSKKKAE → KSWELCGI
Note: Due to a partial intron retention.
Isoform 3 (identifier: O15533-3)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     446-448: KAE → VQCSTSLYLSLVTLSPHPISKPMEGGCWCGRQNLGLEFTLIWVKTWHYILTVGLFEHAT
