Tapasin is a membrane protein, which plays a crucial role involved antigen presentation for certain MHC alleles in antigen presentation. Tapasin acts as a link between Transported Associated with antigen Processing (TAP) and MHC class l by. It acts as quality control in choosing high affinity peptides to be presented. Refolding conditions for the N-­terminal region of tapasin have here been invest
