Name | ERAP2 |
---|---|
Synonyms | LRAP |
Function | Aminopeptidase that plays a central role in peptide trimming, a step required for the generation of most HLA class I-binding peptides. Peptide trimming is essential to customize longer precursor peptides to fit them to the correct length required for presentation on MHC class I molecules. Preferentially hydrolyzes the basic residues Arg and Lys. |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitously expressed. Highly expressed in spleen and leukocytes. |

Background
Aminopeptidases hydrolyze N-terminal amino acids ofproteins or peptide substrates. Major histocompatibility complex(MHC) class I molecules rely on aminopeptidases such as ERAP1 (MIM606832) and LRAP to trim precursors to antigenic peptides in theendoplasmic reticulum (ER) following cleavage in the cytoplasm bytripeptidyl peptidase II (TPP2; MIM 190470) (Tanioka et al., 2003[PubMed 12799365]).
