Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided herein are IL-2 muteins and IL-2 mutein Fc-fusion molecules that preferentially expand and activate T regulatory cells and are amenable to large scale production. Also provided herein are variant human IgG1 Fc molecules lacking or with highly reduced effector function and high stability despite lacking glycosylation at N297. Also, provided herein are linker peptides that are glycosylated when expressed in mammalian cells.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A polypeptide comprising an Fc region of a human IgGl antibody wherein said Fc region comprises a N297G mutation, using EU numbering scheme, one or more substitutions of the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 3 at position V259, A287, R292, V302, L306, V323, or I332, using EU numbering scheme, with a cysteine amino acid residue, and said Fc region of a human IgGl comprises at least 95% identity to the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:3. 2. The polypeptide of claim 1 , wherein said Fc region comprises a A287C and L306C substitution, using EU numbering scheme, within the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:3. 3. The polypeptide of claim 1 , wherein said Fc region comprises a V259C and L306C substitution, using EU numbering scheme, within the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:3. 4. The polypeptide of claim 1 , wherein said Fc region comprises a R292C and V302C substitution, using EU numbering scheme, within the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:3. 5. The polypeptide of claim 1 , wherein said Fc region comprises a V323C and I332C substitution, using EU numbering scheme, within the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:3.
