Cancer cells exploit the expression of the programmed death-1 (PD-1) ligand 1 (PD-L1) to subvert T-cell mediated immunosurveillance. The success of therapies that disrupt PD-L1 mediated tumour tolerance has highlighted the need to understand the molecular regulation of PD-L1 expression. Using a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen we identified the uncharacterized protein CMTM6 to be a critical regulator of PD-L1 in a broad range of cancer cells. CMTM6 is a ubiquitously expressed, protein that binds PD-L1 and maintains its cell surface expression. CMTM6 is not required for PD-L1 maturation but co-localizes with PD-L1 at the plasma membrane and in recycling endosomes where it prevents PD-L1 from being targeted for lysosome-mediated degradation. Using a quantitative approach to profile the entire plasma membrane proteome we find that CMTM6 displays remarkable specificity for PD-L1. Importantly, CMTM6 depletion decreases PD-L1 without compromising cell surface expression of MHC Class I. CMTM6 depletion, via the reduction of PD-L1, significantly alleviates the suppression of tumour specific T-cell activity in vitro and in vivo. These findings provide novel insights into the biology of PD-L1 regulation, identify a previously unrecognised master regulator of this critical immune checkpoint and highlight a new potential therapeutic target to overcome immune evasion by tumour cells.
