Background
IL-2
receptor alpha (IL-2R alpha), also known as CD25, is a 55 kDa type I membrane
glycoprotein that belongs to the family of cytokine receptors that utilize the
common gamma chain subunit (gamma c). Cynomolgus monkey IL-2R alpha cDNA
encodes a 213 amino acid (aa) precursor with a 21 aa signal peptide and a 192
aa extracellular region. The ECD of cynomolgus monkey IL-2R alpha shares a 91.7%
amino acid sequence identity with the ECD of huma IL-2R alpha. IL‑2R alpha is
primarily expressed on activated T cells and on regulatory T cells (Treg)
(1-3). IL-2R beta (CD122) and gamma c (IL-2R gamma /CD132) dimerize to form a
constitutively expressed intermediate affinity IL-2 receptor (4, 5). By itself,
IL-2R alpha binds IL-2 with low affinity. IL-2R alpha makes no contacts with
IL-2R beta or gamma c, and only minor changes are observed in the IL-2
structure in response to receptor binding. These findings support the principal
role of IL-2R alpha to deliver IL-2 to the signaling complex and act as
regulator of signal transduction (6, 7). A soluble form of IL‑2R alpha can
be generated by proteolytic cleavage of the cell surface receptor, rendering
the T cell unresponsive to IL-2 (8, 9). Increased serum levels of soluble IL‑2R alpha are
found in some cancers and immune disorders (10). IL-2R alpha is required for
activation induced cell death (AICD) of naive T cells, a mechanism responsible
for deleting autoreactive T cell clones (11, 12). IL-2R alpha is also required
for the development of CD4+CD25+ Treg which suppresses autoreactive CD4+ T
cells, thereby contributing to peripheral T cell homeostasis (11‑13). Drug targeting of IL-2R alpha has been
indicated to deplete Tregs and induce antitumor immunity in various syngeneic
tumors (14, 15).
