The FG Loop of PD-1 Serves as a "Hotspot" for Therapeutic Monoclonal Antibodies in Tumor Immune Checkpoint Therapy. Iscience, 14:113-124, 2019 Cited by PubMed Abstract: Programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/PD-1 ligand-1 (PD-L1)-blocking monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have taken center stage for tumor immune checkpoint therapy. Identification of the "hotspots" on PD-1 for mAbs will help to develop next-generation oral deliverable agents with long-lasting efficacy. Here, we identified two PD-1-targeting mAbs, GY-5 and GY-14, with PD-1/PD-L1-blocking efficacy. Complex structural information revealed that both mAbs mainly bind to the FG loop of PD-1, which also contributes multiple interactions with PD-L1. The FG loop adopts substantially varied conformations upon binding to different mAbs, providing a novel targetable region for the development of PD-1-specific biologics and small chemical molecules. Glycosylation modifications of PD-1 could be observed in three of the four potential N-linked glycosylation sites. However, the binding of GY-5 and GY-14 to PD-1 was not affected by glycosylation. These findings broaden our understanding of the mechanism of anti-PD-1 mAbs and provide insight into the development of agents targeting PD-1.
