The internal sequence of the peptide-substrate determines its N-terminus trimming by ERAP1.

<h4>Background</h4>Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1) trims N-terminally extended antigenic peptide precursors down to mature antigenic peptides for presentation by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules. ERAP1 has unique properties for an aminopeptidase bei...
