Polymorphic positions 349 and 725 of the autoimmunity-protective allotype 10 of ER aminopeptidase 1 are key in determining its unique enzymatic properties by Galateia Georgaki, Galateia Georgaki, Anastasia Mpakali, Anastasia Mpakali, Myrto Trakada, Athanasios Papakyriakou, Efstratios Stratikos, Efstratios Stratikos

“…ERAP1 allotype 10 is highly protective toward developing some forms of autoimmunity and displays unusual functional properties, including very low activity versus some substrates.MethodsTo understand the molecular mechanisms that underlie the biology of allotype 10, we studied its enzymatic and biophysical properties focusing on its unique polymorphisms V349M and Q725R.ResultsCompared to ancestral allotype 1, allotype 10 is much less effective in trimming small substrates but presents allosteric kinetics that ameliorate activity differences at high substrate concentrations. …”
