Leukocyte-derived arginine aminopeptidase (LRAP) and endoplasmic reticulum-aminopeptidase 2 (ERAP2) are the two names given to the protein encoded by the LRAP gene (1, 2). Induced by interferon-gamma, LRAP is able to trim various MHC class I antigenic peptide precursors. It belongs to the oxytocinase subfamily of M1 aminopeptidases, which also includes aminopeptidases PILS/ARTS1/ERAP1 and LNPEP/PLAP (1, 3). In addition to antigen presentation, the members of this subfamily are also important in maintenance of pregnancy, memory retention, and blood pressure regulation (3).

Protocols
View specific protocols for Recombinant Human Aminopeptidase LRAP/ERAP2 Protein, CF (3830-ZN):
- Assay Buffer: 100 mM MES, pH 6.5
- Recombinant Human Aminopeptidase LRAP/ERAP2 (Catalog # 3830-ZN)
- Substrate: H-Arg-AMC (Bachem, Catalog # I-1050)
- F16 Black Maxisorp Plate (Nunc, Catalog # 475515)
- Fluorescent Plate Reader (Model: SpectraMax Gemini EM by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
- Dilute rhLRAP to 5 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 100 µM in Assay Buffer.
- Load 50 µL of 5 µg/mL rhLRAP into a plate, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 100 µM Substrate. Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL of Assay Buffer and 50 µL of Substrate.
- Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 380 nm and 460 nm (top read), respectively, in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
- Calculate specific activity:

Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) = |
Adjusted Vmax* (RFU/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/RFU) |
| amount of enzyme (µg) |
*Adjusted for Substrate Blank
**Derived using calibration standard 7-Amino-4-Methyl Coumarin (Sigma-Aldrich, Catalog # A9891). Per Well:
- rhLRAP: 0.25 µg
- Substrate: 50 µM
