It has been proposed that the cross-priming of CTL responses in vivo involves the transfer to host APCs of heat shock protein glycoprotein 96-chaperoned antigenic peptides released from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of dying or infected cells. We have tested this possibility directly using TAP-deficient cell lines lacking antigenic ER peptides derived from two model Ags, the human adenovirus type 5 early regions E1A and E1B. Although both proteins were well expressed, the cells were not recognized by E1A- or E1B-specific CTLs unless the relevant epitope was either provided exogenously as a synthetic peptide or targeted to the ER in a TAP-independent fashion. Despite the absence of these ER peptides, the TAP1-/- cells were able to efficiently cross-prime E1A- and E1B-specific CTLs following immunization of syngeneic mice. These results indicate that, although purified peptide/glycoprotein 96 complexes are potent immunogens, the mechanism of CTL cross-priming in vivo does not depend upon antigenic peptides in the ER of immunizing cells.
