Cell Reports, 41, 111490. doi:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2022.111490

Interleukin-27 (IL-27) uniquely assembles p28 and EBI3 subunits to a heterodimeric cytokine that signals via IL-27Rα and gp130. To provide the structural framework for receptor activation by IL-27 and its emerging therapeutic targeting, the crystal structures of mouse IL-27 in complex with IL-27Rα and human IL-27 in complex with SRF388, a monoclonal antibody undergoing clinical trials with oncology indications, were determined.

Dusquetide modulates innate immune response through binding to p62.
Structure 30, 1055-1061e7. doi: 10.1016/j.str.2022.05.003

SQSTM1/p62 is an autophagic receptor that plays a major role in mediating stress and innate immune responses. Preclinical studies identified p62 as a target of the prototype innate defense regulator (IDR); however, the molecular mechanism of this process remains unclear. The paper describes the structural basis and biological consequences of the interaction of p62 with the next generation of IDRs, dusquetide.

The engineered CD80 variant fusion therapeutic davoceticept combines checkpoint antagonism with conditional CD28 co-stimulation for anti-tumor immunity.
Nature Commun. 13, 1790. doi:10.1038/s41467-022-29286-5

The CD80 vIgD from ALPN-202 was co-crystallized with WT PD-L1 ECD and used to determine the structure of the CD80 vIgD:PD-L1 complex. The paper shows that a therapeutic ALPN-202 enhances T cell activation and anti-tumor efficacy in cell-based assays and mouse tumor models more potently than checkpoint blockade alone and thus has the potential to generate potent, clinically meaningful anti-tumor immunity in humans.

GPCRs steer Gi and Gs selectivity via TM5-TM6 switches as revealed by structures of serotonin receptors.
Mol Cell. 82(14):2681-2695.e6. doi:10.1016/j.molcel.2022.05.031.

Serotonin (or 5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is an important neurotransmitter that activates 12 different G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) through selective coupling of Gs, Gi, or Gq proteins. The structural basis for G protein subtype selectivity by these GPCRs remains elusive. The paper reports the structures of the serotonin receptors 5-HT4, 5-HT6, and 5-HT7 with Gs, and 5-HT4 with Gi1. The structures reveal that transmembrane helices TM5 and TM6 alternate lengths as a macro-switch to determine receptor's selectivity for Gs and Gi, respectively.

Structural insights into the lipid and ligand regulation of serotonin receptors.
Nature 592, 469–473, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-021-03376-8

Serotonin, or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), is a neurotransmitter that activates the largest subtype family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR). Drugs that target 5-HT1A, 5-HT1D, 5-HT1E and other 5-HT receptors are used to treat numerous disorders. The paper reports five structures of 5-HT receptor–G-protein complexes: 5-HT1A in the apo state, bound to 5-HT or bound to the antipsychotic drug aripiprazole; 5-HT1D bound to 5-HT; and 5-HT1E in complex with a 5-HT1E- and 5-HT1F-selective agonist, BRL-54443.
