“…Several studies have also demonstrated that these disease-associated variants affect ERAP1 enzymatic activity and selectivity, cellular antigen presentation and concomitant cytotoxic responses Chen et al, 2014;Reeves et al, 2013;Garcia-Medel et al, 2012;Sanz-Bravo et al, 2015;Alvarez-Navarro et al, 2015;Martin-Esteban et al, 2014). Interestingly, in several of those studies, changes in ERAP1 activity due to polymorphic variation at positions 528 and 730 have been correlated with the production of different lengths of antigenic peptides although the effects of peptide sequence were not investigated in those studies (Garcia-Medel et al, 2012;Sanz-Bravo et al, 2015;Alvarez-Navarro et al, 2015). Specific ERAP1 haplotypes have been proposed to constitute a range of different activities that correlate to disease predisposition Seregin et al, 2013).…”
