| Abstract | The transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) is essential for intracellular transport of protein fragments into the endoplasmic reticulum for loading of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules. On the cell surface, these peptide–MHC complexes are monitored by cytotoxic T lymphocytes. To study the ATP hydrolysis of TAP, we developed an enrichment and reconstitution procedure, by which we fully restored TAP function in proteoliposomes. A TAP-specific ATPase activity was identified that could be stimulated by peptides and blocked by the herpes simplex virus protein ICP47. Strikingly, the peptide-binding motif of TAP directly correlates with the stimulation of the ATPase activity, demonstrating that the initial peptide-binding step is responsible for TAP selectivity. ATP hydrolysis follows Michaelis–Menten kinetics with a maximal velocity V max of 2 μmol/min per mg TAP, corresponding to a turnover number of approximately 5 ATP per second. This turnover rate is sufficient to account for the role of TAP in peptide loading of MHC molecules and the overall process of antigen presentation. Interestingly, sterically restricted peptides that bind but are not transported by TAP do not stimulate ATPase activity. These results point to coordinated dialogue between the peptide-binding site, the nucleotide-binding domain, and the translocation site via conformational changes within the TAP complex. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
