LAG3 is a major target for cancer immunotherapy with many anti-LAG3 antibodies in clinical trials. However, there is no structural information on the epitopes recognized by these antibodies. We determined the single-particle cryoEM structure of a therapeutic antibody (favezelimab) bound to LAG3 to 3.5 A resolution, revealing that favezelimab targets the LAG3-binding site for MHC class II, its canonical ligand. The small size of the complex between the conventional (monovalent) Fab of favezelimab and LAG3 ( approximately 100 kDa) presented a challenge for cryoEM. Accordingly, we engineered a bivalent version of Fab favezelimab that doubled the size of the Fab-LAG3 complex and conferred a highly identifiable shape to the complex that facilitated particle selection and orientation for image processing. This study establishes bivalent Fabs as new fiducial markers for cryoEM analysis of small proteins. CryoEM structure of a therapeutic antibody (favezelimab) bound to human LAG3 determined using a bivalent Fab as fiducial marker.,Mishra AK, Shahid S, Karade SS, Agnihotri P, Kolesnikov A, Hasan SS, Mariuzza RA Structure. 2023 Oct 5;31(10):1149-1157.e3. doi: 10.1016/j.str.2023.07.013.
