Northern Ireland Tissue Typing Service, City Hospital.

The frequency of TAP1 and TAP2 gene polymorphisms in MS patients was compared with that of a normal population. A significant increase in TAP2-379-VAL homozygosity and TAP2-565-ALA homozygosity was found in HLA-DRB1*1501-DQB1*0602-negative patients.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009103 Multiple Sclerosis An autoimmune disorder mainly affecting young adults and characterized by destruction of myelin in the central nervous system. Pathologic findings include multiple sharply demarcated areas of demyelination throughout the white matter of the central nervous system. Clinical manifestations include visual loss, extra-ocular movement disorders, paresthesias, loss of sensation, weakness, dysarthria, spasticity, ataxia, and bladder dysfunction. The usual pattern is one of recurrent attacks followed by partial recovery (see MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, RELAPSING-REMITTING), but acute fulminating and chronic progressive forms (see MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, CHRONIC PROGRESSIVE) also occur.

D011110 Polymorphism, Genetic The regular and simultaneous occurrence in a single interbreeding population of two or more discontinuous genotypes. The concept includes differences in genotypes ranging in size from a single nucleotide site (POLYMORPHISM, SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE) to large nucleotide sequences visible at a chromosomal level.

D000071181 ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Subfamily B, Member 2 An ATP-binding cassette, sub-family B protein (ATP BINDING CASSETTE TRANSPORTER, SUBFAMILY B) that functions in the transport of ANTIGENS from the CYTOPLASM to the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM for association with HISTOCOMPATIBILITY ANTIGENS CLASS I peptides. It also acts as a molecular scaffold for the final stage of MHC class I PROTEIN FOLDING.
