Melanoma Peptide MART-1(27−35) Analogues with Enhanced Binding Capacity to the Human Class I Histocompatibility Molecule HLA-A2 by Introduction of a β-Amino Acid Residue: Implications for Recognition by Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes
Abstract
The design of heteroclytic antigens with high MHC binding capacity is of particular interest to overcome the weak immunogenicity of peptide epitopes derived from tissue antigens expressed by tumors. In the present study, double-substituted peptide analogues of the tumor-associated antigen MART-1(27-35) incorporating a substitution at a primary anchor residue and a beta-amino acid residue at different positions in the sequence were synthesized and evaluated for binding to the human histocompatibility class I molecule HLA-A2 and for recognition by tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Interestingly, by combining a Leu for Ala substitution at P2 (which alone is deleterious for antigenic activity) with a beta-amino acid substitution at a putative TCR contact residue, recognition by tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes was partially restored. The analogue [Leu(28),beta-HIle(30)]MART-1(27-35) displays both a higher affinity to HLA-A2 and a more prolonged complex stability compared to [Leu(28)]MART-1(27-35). Overall, these results suggest that double-substitution strategies and beta-amino acid replacements at putative TCR contact residues might prove useful for the design of epitope mimics with high MHC binding capacity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
