The layout of this reaction may differ from that in the pathway view due to the constraints in pathway layout
Upon phagolysosomal proteolysis the phagocytosed proteins still need to gain access to the cytosol for proteasomal access, transport into the ER and loading onto MHC class I. The mechanism for this escape of phagocytosed antigens remains unknown.
