Tapasin retains empty or suboptimally loaded MHC class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). However, the molecular mechanism of this process and how tapasin itself is retained in the ER are unknown. These questions were addressed by tagging tapasin with the cyan fluorescent protein or yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) and probing the distribution and mobility of the tagged proteins. YFP-tapasin molecules were functional and could be isolated in association with TAP, as reported for native tapasin. YFP-tapasin was excluded from ER exit sites even after accumulation of secretory cargo due to disrupted anterograde traffic. Almost all tapasin molecules were clustered, and these clusters diffused freely in the ER. Tapasin oligomers appear to be retained by the failure of the export machinery to recognize them as cargo. 相似文献

Tapasin is a subunit of the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP). It associates with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I. We show that tapasin interacts with beta- and gamma-subunits of COPI coatomer. COPI retrieves membrane proteins from the Golgi network back to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The COPI subunit-associated tapasin also interacts with MHC class I molecules suggesting that tapasin acts as the cargo receptor for packing MHC class I molecules as cargo proteins into COPI-coated vesicles. In tapasin mutant cells, neither TAP nor MHC class I are detected in association with the COPI coatomer. Interestingly, tapasin-associated MHC class I molecules are antigenic peptide-receptive and detected in both the ER and the Golgi. Our data suggest that tapasin is required for the COPI vesicle-mediated retrograde transport of immature MHC class I molecules from the Golgi network to the ER. 相似文献

Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecule expression was investigated by DNA-mediated gene transfer. Cell surface expression was increased up to 75% by transfection of HLA-A2 or HLA-B8 heavy chain genes but not genes encoding light chains (beta(2)-microglobulin (beta(2)m)), transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP), or tapasin. Interferon (IFN) treatment further increased expression of transfected heavy chains, suggesting that IFN inducible molecules support heavy chain expression. IFN induces beta(2)m, TAP, and tapasin mRNAs. Transfected heavy chain expression increased upon cotransfection with genes encoding TAP1 and TAP2 but not individual TAP subunits, beta(2)m, or tapasin. Tetracycline inducible heavy chain gene expression was also increased by IFN treatment or TAP cotransfection, suggesting that IFN-induced TAP supports heavy chain maturation. Expression of a mutant that does not interact strongly with TAP, HLA-A2-T134K, was also increased by IFN. Inhibition of TAP-dependent peptide transport by ICP47 reduced heavy chain expression. Expression of HLA-A2, but not HLA-B8, was restored in ICP47 cells by HLA-A2-binding (IP-30) signal peptides. However, these peptides did not further increase transfected HLA-A2 expression, suggesting that peptide availability does not limit heavy chain expression in the absence of ICP47. These results suggest that cytokine-induced TAP supports maturation of HLA class I molecules through combined chaperone and peptide supply functions. 相似文献

The transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) binds peptides in its cytosolic part and subsequently translocates the peptides into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where assembly of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and peptide takes place. Tapasin is a subunit of the TAP complex and binds both to TAP1 and MHC class I. In the absence of tapasin, the assembly of MHC class I in the ER is impaired, and the surface expression is reduced. To clarify the function of tapasin in the processing of antigenic peptides, we studied the interaction of peptide and TAP, peptide transport across the membrane of the ER, and association of peptides with MHC class I molecules in the microsomes derived from tapasin mutant cell line 721.220, its sister cell line 721.221 expressing tapasin, and their HLA-A2 transfectants. The binding of peptides to TAP in tapasin mutant 721.220 cells was significantly diminished in comparison with 721.221 cells. Impaired peptide-TAP interaction resulted in a defective peptide transport in tapasin mutant 721.220 cells. Interestingly, despite the diminished peptide binding to TAP, the transport rate of TAP-associated peptides was not significantly altered in 721.220 cells. After transfection of tapasin cDNA into 721.220 cells, efficient peptide-TAP interaction was restored. Thus, we conclude that tapasin is required for efficient peptide-TAP interaction. 相似文献

For their efficient assembly in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules require the specific assembly factors transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) and tapasin, as well as generic ER folding factors, including the oxidoreductases ERp57 and protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), and the chaperone calreticulin. TAP transports peptides from the cytosol into the ER. Tapasin promotes the assembly of MHC class I molecules with peptides. The formation of disulfide‐linked conjugates of tapasin with ERp57 is suggested to be crucial for tapasin function. Important functional roles are also suggested for the tapasin transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains, sites of tapasin interaction with TAP. We show that interactions of tapasin with both TAP and ERp57 are correlated with strong MHC class I recruitment and assembly enhancement. The presence of the transmembrane/cytosolic regions of tapasin is critical for efficient tapasin–MHC class I binding in interferon‐γ‐treated cells, and contributes to an ERp57‐independent mode of MHC class I assembly enhancement. A second ERp57‐dependent mode of tapasin function correlates with enhanced MHC class I binding to tapasin and calreticulin. We also show that PDI binds to TAP in a tapasin‐independent manner, but forms disulfide‐linked conjugates with soluble tapasin. Thus, full‐length tapasin is important for enhancing recruitment of MHC class I molecules and increasing specificity of tapasin–ERp57 conjugation. Furthermore, tapasin or the TAP/tapasin complex has an intrinsic ability to recruit MHC class I molecules and promote assembly, but also uses generic folding factors to enhance MHC class I recruitment and assembly. 相似文献

Before exit from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), MHC class I molecules transiently associate with the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP1/TAP2) in an interaction that is bridged by tapasin. TAP1 and TAP2 belong to the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter family, and are necessary and sufficient for peptide translocation across the ER membrane during loading of MHC class I molecules. Most ABC transporters comprise a transmembrane region with six membrane-spanning helices. TAP1 and TAP2, however, contain additional N-terminal sequences whose functions may be linked to interactions with tapasin and MHC class I molecules. Upon expression and purification of human TAP1/TAP2 complexes from insect cells, proteolytic fragments were identified that result from cleavage at residues 131 and 88 of TAP1 and TAP2, respectively. N-Terminally truncated TAP variants lacking these segments retained the ability to bind peptide and nucleotide substrates at a level comparable to that of wild-type TAP. The truncated constructs were also capable of peptide translocation in vitro, although with reduced efficiency. In an insect cell-based assay that reconstituted the class I loading pathway, the truncated TAP variants promoted HLA-B*2705 processing to similar levels as wild-type TAP. However, correlating with the observed reduction in tapasin binding, the tapasin-mediated increase in processing of HLA-B*2705 and HLA-B*4402 was lower for the truncated TAP constructs relative to the wild type. Together, these studies indicate that N-terminal domains of TAP1 and TAP2 are important for tapasin binding and for optimal peptide loading onto MHC class I molecules. 相似文献

Presentation of antigen-derived peptides by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules is dependent on an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident glycoprotein, tapasin, which mediates their interaction with the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP). Independently of TAP, tapasin was required for the presentation of peptides targeted to the ER by signal sequences in MHC class I-transfected insect cells. Tapasin increased MHC class I peptide loading by retaining empty but not peptide-containing MHC class I molecules in the ER. Upon co-expression of TAP, this retention/release function of tapasin was sufficient to reconstitute MHC class I antigen presentation in insect cells, thus defining the minimal non-housekeeping functions required for MHC class I antigen presentation. 相似文献

MHC class I ligands are recruited from the cytosolic peptide pool, whose size is likely to depend on the balance between peptide generation by the proteasome and peptide degradation by downstream peptidases. We asked what fraction of this pool is available for presentation, and how the size of this fraction is modulated by peptide affinity for the TAP transporters. A model epitope restricted by HLA-A2 and a series of epitope precursors with N-terminal extensions by single residues modifying TAP affinity were expressed in a system that allowed us to monitor and modulate cytosolic peptide copy numbers. We show that presentation varies strongly according to TAP affinities of the epitope precursors. The fraction of cytosolic peptides recruited for MHC presentation does not exceed 1% and is more than two logs lower for peptides with very low TAP affinities. Therefore, TAP affinity has a substantial impact on MHC class I Ag presentation. 相似文献

The transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) plays a key role in the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) mediated immune surveillance. It translocates peptides generated by the proteasome complex into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for loading onto MHC class I molecules. At the cell surface these MHC complexes are monitored for their antigenic cargo by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes. Peptide binding to TAP is the essential step for peptide selection and for subsequent ATP-dependent translocation into the ER lumen. To examine the pathway of substrate recognition by TAP, we employed peptide epitopes, which were labeled with an environmentally sensitive fluorophore. Upon binding to TAP, a drastic fluorescence quenching of the fluorescent substrate was detected. This allowed us to analyze TAP function in real-time by using a homogeneous assay. Formation of the peptide-TAP complex is composed of a fast association step followed by a slow isomerization of the transport complex. Proton donor groups moving in proximity to the fluorescence label cause fluorescence quenching. Taken together, this peptide-induced structural reorganization may reflect the crosstalk of structural information between the peptide binding site and both nucleotide-binding domains within the TAP complex. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) consists of two polypeptides, TAP1 and TAP2. TAP delivers peptides into the ER and forms a "loading complex" with MHC class I molecules and accessory proteins. Our previous experiments indicated that nucleotide binding to TAP plays a critical role in the uptake of peptide and the release of assembled class I molecules. To investigate whether the conserved nucleotide binding domains (NBDs) of TAP1 and TAP2 are functionally equivalent, we created TAP variants in which only one of the two ATP binding sites was mutated. RESULTS: Mutations in the NBDs had no apparent effect on the formation of the loading complex. However, both NBDs had to be functional for peptide uptake and transport. TAP1 binds ATP much more efficiently than does TAP2, while the binding of ADP by the two chains is essentially equivalent. Peptide-mediated release of MHC class I molecules from TAP was blocked only when the NBD of TAP1 was disrupted. A different NBD mutation that does not affect nucleotide binding has strikingly different effects on peptide transport activity depending on whether it is present in TAP1 or TAP2. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate that ATP binding to TAP1 is the initial step in energizing the transport process and support the view that ATP hydrolysis at one TAP chain induces ATP binding at the other chain; this leads to an alternating and interdependent catalysis of both NBDs. Furthermore, our data suggest that the peptide-mediated undocking of MHC class I is linked to the transport cycle of TAP by conformational signals arising predominantly from TAP1. 相似文献

The influence of TAP-MHC class I interactions on peptide binding to the class I heavy chain is assessed during TAP-dependent assembly using Kb-specific Abs that recognize conformational changes induced by assembly with beta2-microglobulin (beta2m) and by peptide binding. A significant portion (45%) of Kb molecules in TAP+, RMA-derived microsomes are associated with the TAP complex as measured by coimmunoisolation of Kb using anti-TAP1 Abs, while only 20% of the Kb heavy chain molecules are isolated as Kbbeta2m complexes with the alpha-Kb-specific Abs, Y-3 or K-10-56. The amount of Kb isolated with Y-3 and K-10-56 increases in proportion to transport and binding of peptide to the Kb molecules within the RMA microsomes. In contrast, less than 5% of the Kb within TAP2-RMA-S microsomes associated with the remaining TAP1 subunit. However, greater than 60% of Kb heavy chain is isolated as K-10-56- and Y-3-reactive Kbbeta2m complexes. We propose that a TAP-MHC class I interaction serves to stabilize the MHC class I:beta2m complex in an immature conformation (Y-3 and K-10-56 nonreactive) prior to high affinity peptide binding, preventing the export of class I molecules complexed with low affinity peptide ligands from the ER. 相似文献

It is generally accepted that as the result of positive thymic selection, CD8-expressing T cells recognize peptide antigens presented in the context of MHC class I molecules and CD4-expressing T cells interact with peptide antigens presented by MHC class II molecules. Here we report the generation of TCRalpha/beta(+), CD3(+), CD4(+), CD8(-), MHC class I-restricted alloreactive T-cell clones which were induced using peripheral blood mononuclear cells from healthy individuals following in vitro stimulation with transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP)-deficient cell lines T2. The CD4(+) T-cell clones showed an HLA-A2.1-specific proliferative response against T2 cells which was inhibited by anti-CD3 and anti-CD4 monoclonal antibodies. These results suggest that interaction of the TCR with peptide-bound HLA class I molecules contributes to antigen-specific activation of these co-receptor-mismatched T-cell clones. Antigen recognition by alloreactive MHC class I-restricted CD4(+) T cells was inhibited by removing peptides bound to HLA molecules on T2 cells suggesting that the alloreactive CD4(+) T cells recognize peptides that bind in a TAP-independent manner to HLA-A2 molecules. The existence of such MHC class I-restricted CD4(+) T cells which can recognize HLA-A2 molecules in the absence of TAP function may provide a basis for the development of immunotherapy against TAP-deficient tumor variants which would be tolerant to immunosurveillance by conventional MHC class I-restricted cytotoxic lymphocytes. 相似文献

Tapasin increases efficiency of MHC I assembly in the endoplasmic reticulum but does not affect MHC I stability at the cell surface 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Cell surface expression of MHC I molecules depends on the chaperone tapasin; how tapasin functions is not fully understood. We created three fluorescent tapasin constructs: wild-type tapasin, soluble tapasin, which does not interact with TAP, and N300 tapasin, which does not interact with MHC I. In contrast to earlier reports, all three constructs localize to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), though soluble tapasin is more mobile than wild type and N300. Soluble tapasin does not increase MHC I surface levels to the same extent as wild type, which suggests that proximity to TAP is necessary for full tapasin function. N300 acts as a dominant-negative perhaps by blocking wild-type tapasin access to TAP. None of the constructs affects MHC I stability at the cell surface, although stability of ER resident MHC I is decreased in tapasin-negative cells. We propose that tapasin acts primarily to increase efficiency of assembly of MHC I within the ER. 相似文献

The E3-19K protein from human adenoviruses (Ads) retains class I MHC molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum. As a consequence, the cell surface expression of class I molecules is suppressed, allowing Ads to evade immune surveillance. Using native gel electrophoresis, gel filtration chromatography, and surface plasmon resonance, we show that a soluble form of the Ad type 2 (Ad2) E3-19K protein associates with HLA-A and -B molecules; equilibrium dissociation constants were in the nanomolar range and approximately 2.5-fold higher affinity for HLA-A (-A*0201, -A*0301, -A*1101, -A*3301, and -Aw*6801) relative to HLA-B (-B*0702 and -B*0801) molecules. Among the alleles of the HLA-A locus examined, HLA-A*3101 associated approximately 15-fold less avidly with soluble E3-19K. Soluble E3-19K interacted only very weakly with HLA-Cw*0304, and no interaction with HLA-Cw*0401 could be detected under identical conditions. Site-directed mutagenesis and flow cytometry demonstrated that MHC residue 56 plays a critical role in the association and endoplasmic reticulum retention of HLA-A molecules by E3-19K. This delineates the spatial environment around residue 56 as a putative E3-19K interaction surface on class I molecules. Overall, our data imply that a link may exist between host genetic factors and the susceptibility of individuals to Ad infections. 相似文献

The finding that MHC class I molecules are physically associated with the TAP transporter has suggested that peptides may be directly transported into the binding groove of the class I molecules rather than into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) where they subsequently would encounter class I molecules by diffusion. Such a mechanism would protect peptides from peptidases in the ER and/or escaping back into the cytoplasm. However, we find that an anti-peptide Ab that is cotranslationally transported into the ER prevents TAP-transported peptides from being presented on class I molecules. The Ab only blocks the binding of its cognate peptide (SIINFEKL) but not other peptides (KVVRFKDL, ASNENMETM, and FAPGNYPAL). Therefore, most TAP-transported peptides must diffuse through the lumen of the ER before binding stably to MHC class I molecules. 相似文献

Our understanding of the mechanism by which the E3-19K protein from adenovirus (Ad) targets major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules for retention in the endoplasmic reticulum is derived largely from studies of Ad serotype 2 (subgroup C). It is not well understood to what extent observations on the Ad2 E3-19K/MHC I association can be generalized to E3-19K proteins of other serotypes and subgroups. The low levels of amino acid sequence homology between E3-19K proteins suggest that these proteins are likely to manifest distinct MHC I binding properties. This information is important as the E3-19K/MHC I interaction is thought to play a critical role in enabling Ads to cause persistent infections. Here, we characterized interaction between E3-19K proteins of serotypes 7 and 35 (subgroup B), 5 (subgroup C), 37 (subgroup D), and 4 (subgroup E) and a panel of HLA-A, -B, and -C molecules using native gel, surface plasmon resonance (SPR), and flow cytometry. Results show that all E3-19K proteins exhibited allele specificity toward HLA-A and -B molecules; this was less evident for Ad37 E3-19K. The allele specificity for HLA-A molecules was remarkably similar for different serotypes of subgroup B as well as subgroup C. Interestingly, all E3-19K proteins characterized also exhibited MHC I locus specificity. Importantly, we show that Lys(91) in the conserved region of Ad2 E3-19K targets the C terminus of the α2-helix (MHC residue 177) on MHC class I molecules. From our data, we propose a model of interaction between E3-19K and MHC class I molecules. 相似文献

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules present antigenic peptides to CD8 T cells. The peptides are generated in the cytosol, then translocated across the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum by the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP). TAP is a trimeric complex consisting of TAP1, TAP2, and tapasin (TAP-A) as indicated for human cells by reciprocal coprecipitation with anti-TAP1/2 and anti-tapasin antibodies, respectively. TAP1 and TAP2 are required for the peptide transport. Tapasin is involved in the association of class I with TAP and in the assembly of class I with peptide. The mechanisms of tapasin function are still unknown. Moreover, there has been no evidence for a murine tapasin analogue, which has led to the suggestion that murine MHC class I binds directly to TAP1/2. In this study, we have cloned the mouse analogue of tapasin. The predicted amino acid sequence showed 78% identity to human tapasin with identical consensus sequences of signal peptide, N-linked glycosylation site, transmembrane domain and double lysine motif. However, there was less homology (47%) found at the predicted cytosolic domain, and in addition, mouse tapasin is 14 amino acids longer than the human analogue at the C terminus. This part of the molecule may determine the species specificity for interaction with MHC class I or TAP1/2. Like human tapasin, mouse tapasin binds both to TAP1/2 and MHC class I. In TAP2-mutated RMA-S cells, both TAP1 and MHC class I were coprecipitated by anti-tapasin antiserum indicative of association of tapasin with TAP1 but not TAP2. With crosslinker-modified peptides and purified microsomes, anti-tapasin coprecipitated both peptide-bound MHC class I and TAP1/2. In contrast, anti-calreticulin only coprecipitated peptide-free MHC class I molecules. This difference in association with peptide-loaded class I suggests that tapasin functions later than calreticulin during MHC class I assembly, and controls peptide loading onto MHC class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

Recent studies demonstrate that processing of N-linked glycans plays an important role in the quality control of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I transport from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi complex and beyond. Here, we investigated the importance of oligosaccharide chain length on the association of MHC class I proteins with molecular chaperones and their intracellular transport from the ER to the Golgi. These data show that calnexin interaction with class I proteins having truncated N-glycans was reduced compared to normal class I molecules, whereas the assembly of class I with calreticulin and TAP was unperturbed by N-glycan chain length. Additionally, these results demonstrate that class I proteins containing truncated N-glycans showed decreased detachment from calreticulin and TAP relative to class I proteins bearing typical oligosaccharides. Taken together, these studies show that N-glycan chain length is an important determinant for the quality control of newly synthesized MHC class I proteins in the ER. 相似文献

A charged amino acid residue in the transmembrane/cytoplasmic region of tapasin influences MHC class I assembly and maturation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Tapasin influences the quantity and quality of MHC/peptide complexes at the cell surface; however, little is understood about the structural features that underlie its effects. Because tapasin, MHC class I, and TAP are transmembrane proteins, the tapasin transmembrane/cytoplasmic region has the potential to affect interactions at the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. In this study, we have assessed the influence of a conserved lysine at position 408, which lies in the tapasin transmembrane/cytoplasmic domain. We found that substitutions at position K408 in tapasin affected the expression of MHC class I molecules at the cell surface, and down-regulated tapasin stabilization of TAP. In addition to affecting TAP interaction with tapasin, the substitution of alanine, but not tryptophan, for the lysine at tapasin position 408 increased the amount of tapasin found in association with the open, peptide-free form of the HLA-B8 H chain. Tapasin K408A was also associated with more folded, beta(2)-microglobulin-assembled HLA-B8 molecules than wild-type tapasin. Consistent with our observation of a large pool of tapasin K408A-associated HLA-B8 molecules, the rate at which HLA-B8 migrated from the endoplasmic reticulum was slower in tapasin K408A-expressing cells than in wild-type tapasin-expressing cells. Thus, the alanine substitution at position 408 in tapasin may interfere with the stable acquisition by MHC class I molecules of peptides that are sufficiently optimal to allow MHC class I release from tapasin. 相似文献
