Tapasin stabilizes the TAP1/TAP2 heterodimer
PMID:17204652
DCs, which are biased for MHCI cross-presentation, were enriched in Tap1, Tap2, calreticulin, calnexin, Sec61, ERp57, ERAAP, as well as cystatin B and C, all of which are involved in MHCI presentation or inhibition of enzymes that process peptides for MHCII presentation.

Tapasin may have a quantitative effect on the peptide loading process as suggested by the impaired antigen presentation by DCs from Tpn-/- mice.
dendritic cells of tapasin-deficient mice do not cross-present protein antigen via the MHC class I pathway.

The gene expression of TAP1, TAP2, tapasin, ??2m and HLA-?? HC is up-regulated in mature DC.
