antigen processing and presentation of exogenous protein antigen via MHC class Ib, TAP-dependent
id: GO:0002481
name: antigen processing and presentation of exogenous protein antigen via MHC class Ib, TAP-dependent
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False
Description: The process in which an antigen-presenting cell expresses a peptide antigen of exogenous origin on its cell surface in association with an MHC class Ib protein complex following intracellular transport via a TAP (transporter associated with antigen processing) pathway. The peptide is typically a fragment of a larger exogenous protein which has been degraded within the cell and is dependent on TAP transport from the cytosol to ER for association with the MHC class Ib molecule. Class Ib here refers to non-classical class I molecules, such as those of the HLA-E gene family.
