Abstract excerpt
The immune checkpoint protein, CD112 receptor (CD112R, also known as PVRIG), suppresses T and natural killer (NK) cell activation upon binding to tumor-expressed CD112 (Nectin-2) ligands. Here, we determine the structure of the CD112-CD112R complex and use it to guide the engineering of multiple CD112-targeting immunotherapy candidates. The 2.2 Å-resolution crystal structure reveals an antiparallel, lock-and-key...
