| Tissue Specificity | In caput and cauda epididymal spermatozoa, detected in the acrosome and principal piece (at protein level). |
| Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylated. Within the major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC I) peptide loading complex forms reversible disulfide-linked heterodimers with TAPBP as part of its protein folding chaperone activity. This is essential to assist the dynamic assembly of the MHC I complex with high affinity antigens in the endoplasmic reticulum. |
| Function | Protein disulfide isomerase that catalyzes the formation, isomerization, and reduction or oxidation of disulfide bonds in client proteins and functions as a protein folding chaperone. Core component of the major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC I) peptide loading complex where it functions as an essential folding chaperone for TAPBP. Through TAPBP, assists the dynamic assembly of the MHC I complex with high affinity antigens in the endoplasmic reticulum. Therefore, plays a crucial role in the presentation of antigens to cytotoxic T cells in adaptive immunity. |
