Contents

Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1) is an IFN-γ-induced aminopeptidase in the endoplasmic reticulum that trims longer precursors to the antigenic peptides presented on MHC class I molecules. We recently reported that purified ERAP1 trimmed N-extended precursors but spared peptides of 8-9 residues, the length required for binding to MHC c...
