Function
AA2AR_HUMAN Receptor for adenosine. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase.C562_ECOLX Electron-transport protein of unknown function.
Publication Abstract from PubMed
The G(s) protein-coupled adenosine A(2A) receptor (A(2A)AR) represents an emerging drug target for cancer immunotherapy. The clinical candidate Etrumadenant was developed as an A(2A)AR antagonist with ancillary blockade of the A(2B)AR subtype. It constitutes a unique chemotype featuring a poly-substituted 2-amino-4-phenyl-6-triazolylpyrimidine core structure. Herein, we report two crystal structures of the A(2A)AR in complex with Etrumadenant, obtained with differently thermostabilized A(2A)AR constructs. This led to the discovery of an unprecedented interaction, a hydrogen bond of T88(3.36) with the cyano group of Etrumadenant. T88(3.36) is mutated in most A(2A)AR constructs used for crystallization, which has prevented the discovery of its interactions. In-vitro characterization of Etrumadenant indicated low selectivity versus the A(1)AR subtype, which can be rationalized by the structural data. These results will facilitate the future design of AR antagonists with desired selectivity. Moreover, they highlight the advantages of the employed A(2A)AR crystallization construct that is devoid of ligand binding site mutations.
