Abstract
|
 |
|
As an immune evasion strategy, MICA and MICB, the major histocompatibility
complex class I homologs, are proteolytically cleaved from the surface of cancer
cells leading to impairment of CD8 + T cell- and natural killer cell-mediated
immune responses. Antibodies that inhibit MICA/B shedding from tumors have
therapeutic potential, but the optimal epitopes are unknown. Therefore, we
developed a high-resolution, high-throughput glycosylation-engineered epitope
mapping (GEM) method, which utilizes site-specific insertion of N-linked glycans
onto the antigen surface to mask local regions. We apply GEM to the discovery of
epitopes important for shedding inhibition of MICA/B and validate the epitopes
at the residue level by alanine scanning and X-ray crystallography (Protein Data
Bank accession numbers 6DDM (1D5 Fab-MICA*008), 6DDR (13A9 Fab-MICA*008), 6DDV
(6E1 Fab-MICA*008). Furthermore, we show that potent inhibition of MICA shedding
can be achieved by antibodies that bind GEM epitopes adjacent to previously
reported cleavage sites, and that these anti-MICA/B antibodies can prevent tumor
growth in vivo.
