Title: Cryo-EM elucidates the interaction mechanism of ozoralizumab, a humanized anti-TNFα NANOBODY® compound.

Abstract: Ozoralizumab (OZR) is a next-generation TNF inhibitor composed of two identical humanized anti-TNFα NANOBODY® molecules (TNF30s) recombinantly linked via one humanized anti-human serum albumin (HSA) ...Ozoralizumab (OZR) is a next-generation TNF inhibitor composed of two identical humanized anti-TNFα NANOBODY® molecules (TNF30s) recombinantly linked via one humanized anti-human serum albumin (HSA) NANOBODY® molecule (ALB8) and two peptide linkers. OZR is designed as a unique format to exert potent inhibitory effects against TNFα with long plasma half-life. However, the three-dimensional structure of OZR-TNFα-HSA complex has not yet been elucidated, and a complete understanding of its interaction mechanism with TNFα is yet to be gained. In this study, we successfully observed the formation of the OZR-TNFα-HSA ternary complex by single-particle cryo-electron microscopy. The single-particle analysis revealed that the two TNF30 molecules of OZR simultaneously bind bivalently to TNFα in a 1:1-bivalent binding mode, while the ALB8 molecule binds to HSA, forming a ternary complex. Thus, OZR exhibits a binding mode significantly different from that of other IgG-type TNFα inhibitors. Furthermore, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analysis demonstrated that the 1:1-bivalent binding mode confers an exceptionally slow dissociation rate, thereby contributing to the potent TNFα-neutralizing activity of OZR. These findings not only lend support to the favorable clinical efficacy of OZR from a structural standpoint but also lay the foundation for the rational design and development of next-generation TNFα inhibitors with enhanced and sustained efficacy.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.
