Structural requirements for neural cell adhesion molecule-heparin interaction.   总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18  
Two biological domains have been identified in the amino terminal region of the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM): a homophilic-binding domain, responsible for NCAM-NCAM interactions, and a heparin-binding domain (HBD). It is not known whether these two domains exist as distinct structural entities in the NCAM molecule. To approach this question, we have further defined the relationship between NCAM-heparin binding and cell adhesion. A putative HBD consisting of two clusters of basic amino acid residues located close to each other in the linear amino acid sequence of NCAM has previously been identified. Synthetic peptides corresponding to this domain were shown to bind both heparin and retinal cells. Here we report the construction of NCAM cDNAs with targeted mutations in the HBD. Mouse fibroblast cells transfected with the mutant cDNAs express NCAM polypeptides with altered HBD (NCAM-102 and NCAM-104) or deleted HBD (HBD-) at levels similar to those of wild-type NCAM. Mutant NCAM polypeptides purified from transfected cell lines have substantially reduced binding to heparin and fail to promote chick retinal cell attachment. Furthermore, whereas a synthetic peptide that contains both basic amino acid clusters inhibits retinal-cell adhesion to NCAM-coated dishes, synthetic peptides in which either one of the two basic regions is altered to contain only neutral amino acids do not inhibit this adhesion. These results confirm that this region of the NCAM polypeptide does indeed mediate not only the large majority of NCAM's affinity for heparin but also a significant portion of the cell-adhesion-mediating capability of NCAM.  相似文献

Cell-substratum adhesion in the embryonic chicken nervous system has been shown to be mediated in part by a 170,000-mol-wt polypeptide that is a component of adherons. Attachment of retinal cells to the 170,000-mol-wt protein is inhibited by the C1H3 monoclonal antibody and by heparan sulfate (Cole, G. J., D. Schubert, and L. Glaser, 1985, J. Cell Biol., 100:1192-1199). In the present study we have demonstrated that the 170,000-mol-wt C1H3 polypeptide is immunologically identical to the neural cell adhesion molecule N-CAM, and that the 170,000-mol-wt component of N-CAM is preferentially secreted by cells as a component of adherons. We have identified a monoclonal antibody, designated B1A3, that inhibits heparin binding to N-CAM and cell-to-substratum adhesion. A 25,000-mol-wt heparin (heparan sulfate)-binding domain of N-CAM has been identified by limited proteolysis, and this fragment promotes cell attachment when bound to glass surfaces. The fragment also partially inhibits cell binding to adherons when bound to retinal cells, and the B1A3 monoclonal antibody inhibits retinal cell attachment to substrata composed of intact N-CAM or the heparin-binding domain. These data are the first evidence that N-CAM is a multifunctional protein that contains both cell-and heparin (heparan sulfate)-binding domains.  相似文献

We utilized a 9-mer random phage display library to identify sequences which bind to laminin-1 and elute with heparan sulfate or peptide 11 (CDPGYIGSR). Laminin-1 derivatized plates were used for biopanning. Three consecutive rounds of low pH elutions were carried out, followed by three rounds of specific elutions, each consisting of a heparan sulfate elution followed by a peptide 11 elution. The random sequence inserts were sequenced for phage populations eluted at low pH, by heparan sulfate and by peptide 11. Specifically eluted phage populations exhibited three classes of mimotopes for different regions in the cDNA derived amino acid sequence of the 67 kDa laminin binding protein (LBP). These regions were (1) a palindromic sequence known as peptide G, (2) a predicted helical domain corresponding to LBP residues 205-229, and (3) TEDWS-containing C-terminal repeats. All elution conditions also yielded phage with putative heparin binding sequences. We modeled the LBP(205-229) domain, which is strongly predicted to have a helical secondary structure, and determined that this region likely possesses heparin-binding characteristics located to one side of the helix, while the opposite side appears to contain a hydrophobic patch where peptide 11 could bind. Using ELISA plate assays, we demonstrated that peptide 11 and heparan sulfate individually bound to synthetic LBP(205-229) peptide. We also demonstrated that the QPATEDWSA peptide could inhibit tumor cell adhesion to laminin-1. These data support the proposal that the 67 kDa LBP can bind the beta-1 laminin chain at the peptide 11 region, and suggest that heparan sulfate is a likely alternate ligand for the binding interactions. Our results also confirm previous data suggesting that the most C-terminal region of the LBP, which contains the TEDWS repeats, is involved in cell adhesion to laminin-1, and we specifically implicate the repeat sequence in that activity.  相似文献

Embryonic chick neural retina cells in culture release complexes of proteins and glycosaminoglycans, termed adherons, which stimulate cell-substratum adhesion when adsorbed to nonadhesive surfaces. Two distinct retinal cell surface macromolecules, a 170,000-mol-wt glycoprotein and a heparan sulfate proteoglycan; are components of adherons that can independently promote adhesion when coated on inert surfaces. The 170,000-mol-wt polypeptide contains a heparin-binding domain, as indicated by its retention on heparin-agarose columns and its ability to bind [3H]heparin in solution. The attachment of embryonic chick retinal cells to the 170,000-mol-wt protein also depends upon interactions between the protein and the heparan sulfate proteoglycan, since heparan sulfate in solution disrupts adhesion of chick neural retina cells to glass surfaces coated with the 170,000-mol-wt protein. This adhesion is not impaired by chondroitin sulfate or hyaluronic acid, which indicates that inhibition by heparan sulfate is specific. Polyclonal antisera directed against the cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan also inhibit attachment of retinal cells to the 170,000-mol-wt protein, which suggests that cell-adheron binding is mediated in part by interactions between cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan and 170,000-mol-wt protein contained in the adheron particles. Previous studies have indicated that this type of cell-substratum adhesion is tissue-specific since retina cells do not attach to muscle adherons. Schubert D., M. LaCorbiere, F. G. Klier, and C.

Angiomodulin (AGM/TAF/mac25) is a 30-kDa glycoprotein that was identified as an integrin-independent cell adhesion protein secreted by human bladder carcinoma cells. AGM is highly accumulated in small blood vessels of tumor tissues. In the present study, we attempted to identify the cell surface receptor and the cell-binding site of AGM using ECV-304 human vascular endothelial cells and BALB/c3T3 mouse fibroblasts. Heparin, heparan sulfate, and dextran sulfate, but not chondroitin sulfate, inhibited both adhesion of the two cell lines to AGM-coated plates and binding of AGM to these cells. Treatment of cells with heparinase, but not chondroitinase, inhibited both cell adhesion to AGM and AGM binding to cells. These results strongly suggested that heparan sulfates are the major receptor for AGM. Furthermore, we determined a 20-amino acid sequence within AGM molecule as its major cell-binding site. The synthetic peptide for the cell-binding sequence showed cell adhesion activity comparable to that of AGM, and the activity was inhibited by heparin and heparan sulfate. The peptide competitively inhibited cell adhesion to AGM and the binding of AGM to cells. These results indicated that AGM binds to cells through interaction of the identified cell-binding sequence with heparan sulfates on cell surface. It was also found that the heparan sulfate-binding peptide inhibited the formation of capillary tube-like structures of vascular endothelial cells in culture.  相似文献

Transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is an autoantigen in celiac disease (CD) and it has multiple biologic functions including involvement in cell adhesion through interactions with integrins, fibronectin (FN), and heparan sulfate proteoglycans. We aimed to delineate the heparin‐binding regions of human TG2 by studying binding kinetics of the predicted heparin‐binding peptides using surface plasmon resonance method. In addition, we characterized immunogenicity of the TG2 peptides and their effect on cell adhesion. The high‐affinity binding of human TG2 to the immobilized heparin was observed, and two TG2 peptides, P1 (amino acids 202–215) and P2 (261–274), were found to bind heparin. The amino acid sequences corresponding to the heparin‐binding peptides were located close to each other on the surface of the TG2 molecule as part of the α‐helical structures. The heparin‐binding peptides displayed increased immunoreactivity against serum IgA of CD patients compared with other TG2 peptides. The cell adhesion reducing effect of the peptide P2 was revealed in Caco‐2 intestinal epithelial cell attachment to the FN and FN‐TG2 coated surfaces. We propose that TG2 amino acid sequences 202–215 and 261–274 could be involved in binding of TG2 to cell surface heparan sulfates. High immunoreactivity of the corresponding heparin‐binding peptides of TG2 with CD patient's IgA supports the previously described role of anti‐TG2 autoantibodies interfering with this interaction.

Heparin/heparan sulfate (HS) plays a key role in cellular adhesion. In this study, we utilized a 12‐mer random Escherichia coli cell surface display library to identify the sequence, which binds to heparin. Isolated insert analysis revealed a novel heparin‐binding peptide sequence, VRRSKHGARKDR, designated as HBP12. Our analysis of the sequence alignment of heparin‐binding motifs known as the Cardin–Weintraub consensus (BBXB, where B is a basic residue) indicates that the HBP12 peptide sequence contains two consecutive heparin‐binding motifs (i.e. RRSK and RKDR). SPR‐based BIAcore technology demonstrated that the HBP12 peptide binds to heparin with high affinity (KD = 191 nM ). The HBP12 peptide is found to bind the cell surface HS expressed by osteoblastic MC3T3 cells and promote HS‐dependent cell adhesion. Moreover, the surface‐immobilized HBP12 peptide on titanium substrates shows significant increases in the osteoblastic MC3T3‐E1 cell adhesion and proliferation.

Chondroadherin, a leucine-rich repeat family member, contains a very C-terminal sequence CKFPTKRSKKAGRH359, now shown to bind to heparin with a KD of 13 μm. This observation led us to investigate whether chondroadherin interacts via this C-terminal heparin-binding domain with glycosaminoglycan chains of proteoglycans at the cell surface. Cells were shown to bind this heparin-binding peptide in FACS analysis, and the interaction was shown to be with glycosaminoglycans because it was abolished when sulfation was inhibited by chlorate treatment of the cells. In separate experiments, heparin and heparan sulfate inhibited the peptide interaction in a dose-dependent manner. Using a human chondrosarcoma and a murine osteoblast cell line, heparan sulfate proteoglycans were identified as the cell surface receptors involved in the binding. Different binding syndecans were identified in the two different cell lines, indicating that the same protein core of a proteoglycan may have structural and functional differences in the attached heparan sulfate chains. Upon binding to coated peptide, cells spread, demonstrating engagement of the cytoskeleton, but no focal adhesion complex was formed. The number of cells adhering via their β1 integrin receptor to collagen type II or chondroadherin was profoundly and rapidly enhanced by the addition of the heparin-binding peptide. The peptide added to the cells caused ERK phosphorylation, showing that it triggered intracellular signaling. The results show that heparan sulfate chains differ between various members of the proteoglycan families on a given cell, but also differ between the same proteoglycan on different cells with a potential for differential regulation of cellular activities.  相似文献

Bovine brain cDNA cloned earlier and attributed to calmodulin-independent adenylate cyclase encodes the neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM). The expression of N-CAM mRNA in Xenopus laevis oocytes increases their basal adenylate cyclase activity. Polyclonal antibodies against synthetic peptide A, VAENQQGKSKAAHFV (664-678 amino acid residues of bovine N-CAM), containing sequence AXXXXGKS which is homologous to the nucleotide-binding consensus sequence GXXXXGKS, inhibit the adenylate cyclase activity. A close relationship appears to exist between adenylate cyclase and N-CAM.  相似文献

Binding to heparan sulfate is essential for baculovirus transduction of mammalian cells. Our previous study shows that gp64, the major glycoprotein on the virus surface, binds to heparin in a pH-dependent way, with a stronger binding at pH 6.2 than at 7.4. Using fluorescently labeled peptides, we mapped the pH-dependent heparin-binding sequence of gp64 to a 22-amino-acid region between residues 271 and 292. Binding of this region to the cell surface was also pH dependent, and peptides containing this sequence could efficiently inhibit baculovirus transduction of mammalian cells at pH 6.2. When the heparin-binding peptide was immobilized onto the bead surface to mimic the high local concentration of gp64 on the virus surface, the peptide-coated magnetic beads could efficiently pull down cells expressing heparan sulfate but not cells pretreated with heparinase or cells not expressing heparan sulfate. Interestingly, although this heparin-binding function is essential for baculovirus transduction of mammalian cells, it is dispensable for infection of Sf9 insect cells. Virus infectivity on Sf9 cells was not reduced by the presence of heparin or the identified heparin-binding peptide, even though the peptide could bind to Sf9 cell surface and be efficiently internalized. Thus, our data suggest that, depending on the availability of the target molecules on the cell surface, baculoviruses can use two different methods, electrostatic interaction with heparan sulfate and more specific receptor binding, for cell attachment.  相似文献
