Interestingly, the endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1) protein, well known for its aminopeptidase function as a "molecular ruler", trimming peptides prior to their loading onto MHC-I molecules for antigen presentation in the ER, has also been shown to be genetically associated with both autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

This is the first study to address the role of an allelic variant in type I promoter of C2ta in MHC-II expression and autoimmune diseases; and shows that C2ta polymorphisms regulate MHC-II expression and T-cell responses but do not necessarily have a strong impact on autoimmune diseases.
