Transporter associated with antigen processing ( TAP ) is essential for the stabilization and surface expression of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules of all nucleated cells. TAP deficiency syndrome, also known as bare lymphocyte syndrome type I, is a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder. We report a case of TAP 1 deficiency revealed by skin lesions long before the occurrence of respiratory infectious manifestations.
