ABSTRACT
A novel allele of transporters associated with the antigen-processing (TAP) 2 gene, TAP2*Bky2 (Val(577)), is significantly increased in Japanese patients with Sjögren's syndrome (SS), and has a strong association with SS-A/Ro autoantibody production in SS and autoantibody including anti-SS-A/Ro and anti-U1 RNP antibody in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). To determine the influence of this natural mutated TAP on peptides loaded onto MHC class I, we analyzed the repertoire of peptides loaded onto MHC class I on transfectants with TAP1 and TAP2 or mutated TAP2 by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS). After comparison of the peptide profiles we identified three peptides from only mutated TAP transfectants. Moreover, one of these peptides is derived from snRNP A, which is a target for anti-U1 RNP antibody. To our knowledge this is the first report to show that the natural mutation of TAP2 changes the peptide profile loaded onto MHC class I molecules.
