Chaperone function in antigen presentation by MHC class I molecules—tapasin in the PLC and TAPBPR beyond

Peptide loading of MHC-I molecules plays a critical role in the T cell response to infections and tumors as well as to interactions with inhibitory receptors on natural killer (NK) cells. To facilitate and optimize peptide acquisition, vertebrates have evolved specialized chaperones to stabilize MHC...
