Abstract

Lateral diffusion of GFP-tagged H2L d molecules in the ER membrane reports on their interaction with the TAP complex during synthesis and peptide loading. Peptide-loaded H2L d molecules diffuse rapidly, near the theoretical limit for proteins in a bilayer. However, these molecules are retained in the ER for some time after assembly. H2L d molecules, associated with the TAP complex, diffuse slowly, as does GFP-tagged TAP1. This implies that the association of H2L d molecules with the TAP complex is stable for at least several minutes. It also suggests that the TAP complex is very large, perhaps containing hundreds of proteins.
