ABSTRACT
ERAP1 is an emerging target for a large subclass of severe autoimmune diseases known as "MHC-I-opathy", together with tumor immunity. Nevertheless, effective inhibitors targeting ERAP1 remain a challenge. In this study, a novel food-derived natural product ERAP1-targeting inhibitor, carnosic acid, was identified, and to our knowledge, it is one of the best active compounds among the highly selective inhibitors targeting the orthosteric site of ERAP1. The results reveal that carnosic acid could bind strongly, like a key to the ERAP1 active site in the biased S1' pocket, which is different from the binding mode of the existing orthosteric site inhibitors. HLA-B27-mediated cell modeling validated that carnosic acid has the activity to reverse the AS-associated cellular phenotype brought on by ERAP1 through inhibition. Our findings provide insights into the design of potent inhibitors against the ERAP1 orthosteric site and the discovery of a key direct target of carnosic acid.
