The experimental (infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, circular dichroism) and computational (density functional theory) methods allowed us to demonstrate the potential of the ferrocene chromophore to translate chiral information stored at N-terminally attached l-Ala, and transmitted through achiral (Aib)n sequence (n=1 to 3), into a characteristic signal in circular dichroism spectra near 470 nm. The sufficiently long tetrapeptide forms a robust and highly organized 310 helices capable of perturbing the environment of the highly symmetric ferrocene chromophore in an asymmetric manner. The origin of the sign in the circular dichroism spectra of the ferrocene chromophore (near the 470 nm) strongly correlates with the sign of the dihedral angle χ, accounting for a rotation of a substituent attached to the cyclopentadienyl ring that depends on the helicity of peptide sequence. These observations may help us in the design of future ferrocene-based probes for the assignment of the screw-sense preference of short peptides.

ERAP1 is an endoplasmic reticulum-resident zinc aminopeptidase that plays an important role in the immune system by trimming peptides for loading onto major histocompatibility complex proteins. Here, we report discovery of the first inhibitors selective for ERAP1 over its paralogues ERAP2 and IRAP. Compound 1 (N-(N-(2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl)carbamimidoyl)-2,5-difluorobenzenesulfonamide) and compound 2 (1-(1-(4-acetylpiperazine-1-carbonyl)cyclohexyl)-3-(p-tolyl)urea) are competitive inhibitors of ERAP1 aminopeptidase activity. Compound 3 (4-methoxy-3-(N-(2-(piperidin-1-yl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)sulfamoyl)benzoic acid) allosterically activates ERAP1's hydrolysis of fluorogenic and chromogenic amino acid substrates but competitively inhibits its activity toward a nonamer peptide representative of physiological substrates. Compounds 2 and 3 inhibit antigen presentation in a cellular assay. Compound 3 displays higher potency for an ERAP1 variant associated with increased risk of autoimmune disease. These inhibitors provide mechanistic insights into the determinants of specificity for ERAP1, ERAP2, and IRAP and offer a new therapeutic approach of specifically inhibiting ERAP1 activity in vivo.
