A random-primed cDNA expression library constructed from the mRNA of neuroblastoma cells (NG108) was used to clone a specific rabies virus (RV) receptor. A soluble form of the RV glycoprotein (Gs) was utilized as a ligand to detect positive cells. We identified the murine low-affinity nerve-growth factor receptor, p75NTR. BSR cells stably expressing p75NTR were able to bind Gs and G-expressing lepidopteran cells. The ability of the RV glycoprotein to bind p75NTR was dependent on the presence of a lysine and arginine in positions 330 and 333 respectively of antigenic site III, which is known to control virus penetration into motor and sensory neurons of adult mice. P75NTR-expressing BSR cells were permissive for a non-adapted fox RV isolate (street virus) and nerve growth factor (NGF) decreased this infection. In infected cells, p75NTR associates with the RV glycoprotein and could be precipitated with anti-G monoclonal antibodies. Therefore, p75NTR is a receptor for street RV. 相似文献

Rabies virus glycoprotein (RVG) is known to be the only factor that mediates rabies infection. The neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR), through its cysteine-rich domain 1, is a specific receptor for RVG and neutralizes virus infectivity, but its role in virus infection has remained obscure. We used adult mouse dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons as a model to study the role of p75NTR in RV infection of primary neurons. We show that RV infects around 20% of DRG neurons, of which more than 80% are p75NTR positive, have large diameters, and are capsaicin insensitive. Surprisingly, RV binding and infection are absent in about half of the p75NTR-expressing DRG neurons which have small diameters and are often capsaicin sensitive. This indicates that p75NTR is not sufficient to mediate RV interaction in sensory neurons. The rate and specificity of neural infection are unchanged in RV-infected p75NTRExonIV−/− mice that lack all extracellular receptor domains and in wild-type mice infected with two independent RV mutants that lack p75NTR binding. Accordingly, the mortality rate is unchanged in the absence of RV-p75NTR interaction. We conclude that although p75NTR is a receptor for soluble RVG in transfected cells of heterologous expression systems, an RVG-p75NTR interaction is not necessary for RV infection of primary neurons. This means that other receptors are required to mediate RV infection in vivo and in vitro. 相似文献

Removal of the fucose residue from the oligosaccharides attached to Asn297 of human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) results in a significant enhancement of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) via improved IgG1 binding to Fcgamma receptor IIIa. To provide structural insight into the mechanisms of affinity enhancement, we determined the crystal structure of the nonfucosylated Fc fragment and compared it with that of fucosylated Fc. The overall conformations of the fucosylated and nonfucosylated Fc fragments were similar except for hydration mode around Tyr296. Stable-isotope-assisted NMR analyses confirmed the similarity of the overall structures between fucosylated and nonfucosylated Fc fragments in solution. These data suggest that the glycoform-dependent ADCC enhancement is attributed to a subtle conformational alteration in a limited region of IgG1-Fc. Furthermore, the electron density maps revealed that the traces between Asp280 and Asn297 of our fucosylated and nonfucosylated Fc crystals were both different from that in previously reported isomorphous Fc crystals. 相似文献

Myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) is a potent inhibitor of neurite outgrowth from a variety of neurons. The receptor for MAG or signals that elicit morphological changes in neurons remained to be established. Here we show that the neurotrophin receptor p75 (p75(NTR)) is the signal transducing element for MAG. Adult dorsal root ganglion neurons or postnatal cerebellar neurons from mice carrying a mutation in the p75(NTR) gene are insensitive to MAG with regard to neurite outgrowth. MAG activates small GTPase RhoA, leading to retarded outgrowth when p75(NTR)) is present. Colocalization of p75(NTR) and MAG binding is seen in neurons. Ganglioside GT1b, which is one of the binding partners of MAG, specifically associates with p75(NTR). Thus, p75(NTR) and GT1b may form a receptor complex for MAG to transmit the inhibitory signals in neurons. 相似文献

The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) collaborates with the Nogo receptor (NgR) and LINGO-1 to activate RhoA in response to myelin-based growth inhibitors such as myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG). In this issue of Neuron, Domeniconi et al., in a surprising turn, show that MAG induces intramembrane proteolysis (RIP) of p75NTR and find that p75NTR cleavage is required for MAG-induced RhoA activation and growth inhibition. 相似文献

The p75(NTR) neurotrophin receptor has been implicated in multiple biological and pathological processes. While significant advances have recently been made in understanding the physiologic role of p75(NTR) , many details and aspects remain to be determined. This is in part because the two existing knockout mouse models (Exons 3 or 4 deleted, respectively), both display features that defy definitive conclusions. Here we describe the generation of mice that carry a conditional p75(NTR) (p75(NTR-FX) ) allele made by flanking Exons 4-6, which encode the transmembrane and all cytoplasmic domains, by loxP sites. To validate this novel conditional allele, both neural crest-specific p75(NTR) /Wnt1-Cre mutants and conventional p75(NTR) null mutants were generated. Both mutants displayed abnormal hind limb reflexes, implying that loss of p75(NTR) in neural crest-derived cells causes a peripheral neuropathy similar to that seen in conventional p75(NTR) mutants. This novel conditional p75(NTR) allele will offer new opportunities to investigate the role of p75(NTR) in specific tissues and cells. 相似文献

The neurotrophin receptor p75(NTR) mediates a wide variety of biological effects. Consistent with the function in controlling the survival and neurite formation, p75(NTR) is expressed during the developmental stages of the nervous system. Importantly, p75(NTR) is re-expressed in various pathological conditions and is suggested to contribute to the inhibition of neuronal regeneration and the death of the neurons. Here we develop a tool to knock down the expression of p75(NTR) by employing a small interfering RNA (siRNA). The siRNA for p75(NTR) effectively reduces the expression of endogenous p75(NTR) both in Schwann cells and dorsal root ganglion neurons in vitro. NGF-induced cell death in Schwann cells and the neurite retraction in DRG neurons induced by myelin-associated glycoprotein are attenuated by the siRNA. Inhibition of p75(NTR) in specific pathological conditions by the siRNA may provide a potential therapeutic agent. 相似文献

Hepatitis A virus (HAV) infects African green monkey kidney (AGMK) cells via the HAV cellular receptor-1 (havcr-1), a mucin-like type 1 integral-membrane glycoprotein of unknown natural function. The ectodomain of havcr-1 contains an N-terminal immunoglobulin-like cysteine-rich region (D1), which binds protective monoclonal antibody (MAb) 190/4, followed by an O-glycosylated mucin-like threonine-serine-proline-rich region that extends D1 well above the cell surface. To study the interaction of HAV with havcr-1, we constructed immunoadhesins fusing the hinge and Fc portion of human IgG1 to D1 (D1-Fc) or the ectodomain of the poliovirus receptor (PVR-Fc) and expressed them in CHO cells. These immunoadhesins were secreted to the cell culture medium and purified through protein A-agarose columns. In a solid-phase assay, HAV bound to D1-Fc in a concentration-dependent manner whereas background levels of HAV bound to PVR-Fc. Binding of HAV to D1-Fc was blocked by treatment with MAb 190/4 but not with control MAb M2, which binds to a tag epitope introduced between the D1 and Fc portions of the immunoadhesin. D1-Fc neutralized approximately 1 log unit of the HAV infectivity in AGMK cells, whereas PVR-Fc had no effect in the HAV titers. A similarly poor reduction in HAV titers was observed after treating the same stock of HAV with murine neutralizing MAbs K2-4F2, K3-4C8, and VHA 813. Neutralization of poliovirus by PVR-Fc but not by D1-Fc indicated that the virus-receptor interactions were specific. These results show that D1 is sufficient for binding and neutralization of HAV and provide further evidence that havcr-1 is a functional cellular receptor for HAV. 相似文献

In this paper, evidence is provided that p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) exerts an opposite role on the cytotoxic function of β-amyloid (Aβ) depending on the different state of the peptide, fibrillar or oligomeric soluble form. Previous work in our laboratory has shown that the expression of p75NTR is required for cell death in vitro by Aβ peptides in fibrillar form (G. Perini, V. Della-Bianca, V. Politi, G. Della Valle, I. Dal-Pra, F. Rossi, U. Armato. Role of p75 neurotrophin receptor in the neurotoxicity by beta-amyloid peptides and synergistic effect of inflammatory cytokines. J. Exp. Med. 195 (2002) 907-918). In the present study, performed by using the same cell clones and procedures as in previous paper, we show that: (a) soluble oligomers of Aβ(1-42) exert a cytotoxic activity independent of p75NTR, (b) the expression of p75NTR exerts a protective role against the toxic activity of soluble oligomers, (c) this role is due to an active function of the juxtamembrane sequence of the cytoplasmic region of p75NTR and (d) the protective function is mediated by phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) activity. 相似文献

The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) protein RL13 has recently been described to be present in all primary isolates but rapidly mutated in culture adapted viruses. Although these data suggest a crucial role for this gene product in HCMV primary infection, no function has so far been assigned to this protein. Working with RL13 expressed in isolation in transfected human epithelial cells, we demonstrated that recombinant RL13 from the clinical HCMV isolates TR and Merlin have selective human immunoglobulin (Ig)-binding properties towards IgG1 and IgG2 subtypes. An additional Fc binding protein, RL12, was also identified as an IgG1 and IgG2 binding protein but not further characterized. The glycoprotein RL13 trafficked to the plasma membrane where it bound and internalized exogenous IgG or its constant fragment (Fcγ). Analysis of RL13 ectodomain mutants suggested that the RL13 Ig-like domain is responsible for the Fc binding activity. Ligand-dependent internalization relied on a YxxL endocytic motif located in the C-terminal tail of RL13. Additionally, we showed that the tyrosine residue could be replaced by phenylalanine but not by alanine, indicating that the internalization signal was independent from phosphorylation events. In sum, RL13 binds human IgG and may contribute to HCMV immune evasion in the infected host, but this function does not readily explain the instability of the RL13 gene during viral propagation in cultured cells. 相似文献

Myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) is a potent inhibitor of neurite outgrowth from a variety of neurons. Here we show that gangliosides, GT1b and GD1a, as well as the Nogo receptor, are functional binding partners for soluble MAG-Fc. Postnatal cerebellar neurons from mice deficient in the GalNAcT gene are insensitive to MAG with regard to neurite outgrowth and lack in the activation of RhoA. MAG-Fc or the antibody to GT1b and GD1a elicits recruitment of p75(NTR.) to lipid rafts, specialized microdomain for signal transduction. Disruption of lipid rafts results in abolishment of inhibitory effects of MAG-Fc and the Nogo peptide. These findings establish gangliosides as functional binding partners for soluble MAG. Gangliosides may play a role in translocation of p75(NTR.) to lipid rafts for initiation of the signal transduction. 相似文献

Neurotrophins (NTs) belong to a family of growth factors that play a critical role in the control of skin homeostasis. NTs act through the low-affinity receptor p75NTR and the high-affinity receptors TrkA, TrkB, and TrkC. Here we show that dermal fibroblasts (DF) and myofibroblasts (DM) synthesize and secrete all NTs and express NT receptors. NTs induce differentiation of DF into DM, as shown by the expression of α-SMA protein. The Trk inhibitor K252a, TrkA/Fc, TrkB/Fc, or TrkC/Fc chimera prevents DF and DM proliferation. In addition, p75NTR siRNA inhibits DF proliferation, indicating that both NT receptors mediate DF proliferation induced by endogenous NTs. Autocrine NTs also induce DF migration through p75NTR and Trk, as either silencing of p75NTR or Trk/Fc chimeras prevent this effect, in absence of exogenous NTs. Finally, NGF or BDNF statistically increase the tensile strength in a dose dependent manner, as measured in a collagen gel through the GlaSbox device. Taken together, these results indicate that NTs exert a critical role on fibroblast and could be involved in tissue re-modeling and wound healing. 相似文献

The Fc portion of immunoglobulin G (IgG) expresses the biantennary complex type oligosaccharides at Asn297 of the C(H)2 domain of each heavy chain with microheterogeneities depending on physiological and pathological states. These N-glycans are known to be essential for promotion of proper effector functions of IgG such as complement activation and Fcgamma receptor (FcgammaR)-mediated activities. To gain a better understanding of the role of Fc glycosylation, we prepared a series of truncated glycoforms of human IgG1-Fc and analyzed their interactions with human soluble FcgammaRIIIa (sFcgammaRIIIa) and with staphylococcal protein A by surface plasmon resonance and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods. Progressive but less pronounced reductions in the affinity for sFcgammaRIIIa were observed as a result of the galactosidase and subsequent N-acetylhexosaminidase treatments of IgG1-Fc. The following endoglycosidase D treatment, giving rise to a disaccharide structure composed of a fucosylated GlcNAc, abrogated the affinity of IgG1-Fc for sFcgammaRIIIa. On the other hand, those glycosidase treatments did not significantly affect the affinity of IgG1-Fc for protein A. Inspection of stable-isotope-assisted NMR data of a series of Fc glycoforms indicates that the stepwise trimming out of the carbohydrate residues results in concomitant increase in the number of amino acid residues perturbed thereby in the C(H)2 domains. Furthermore, the cleavage at the GlcNAcbeta1-4GlcNAc glycosidic linkage induced the conformational alterations of part of the lower hinge region, which makes no direct contact with the carbohydrate moieties and forms the major FcgammaR-binding site, while the conformation of the C(H)2/C(H)3 interface was barely perturbed that is the protein A-binding site. These results indicate that the carbohydrate moieties are required for maintaining the structural integrity of the FcgammaR-binding site. 相似文献

Expression and function of Xenopus laevis p75(NTR) suggest evolution of developmental regulatory mechanisms 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Neurotrophins signal through two different classes of receptors, members of the trk family of receptor tyrosine kinases, and p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75(NTR)), a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family. While neurotrophin binding to trks results in, among other things, increased cell survival, p75(NTR) has enigmatically been implicated in promoting both survival and cell death. Which of these two signals p75(NTR) imparts depends on the specific cellular context. Xenopus laevis is an excellent system in which to study p75(NTR) function in vivo because of its amenability to experimental manipulation. We therefore cloned partial cDNAs of two p75(NTR) genes from Xenopus, which we have termed p75(NTR)a and p75(NTR)b. We then cloned two different cDNAs, both of which encompass the full coding region of p75(NTR)a. Early in development both p75(NTR)a and p75(NTR)b are expressed in developing cranial ganglia and presumptive spinal sensory neurons, similar to what is observed in other species. Later, p75(NTR)a expression largely continues to parallel p75(NTR) expression in other species. However, Xenopus p75(NTR)a is additionally expressed in the neuroepithelium of the anterior telencephalon, all layers of the retina including the photoreceptor layer, and functioning axial skeletal muscle. Finally, misexpression of full length p75(NTR) and each of two truncated mutants in developing retina reveal that p75(NTR) probably signals for cell survival in this system. This result contrasts with the reported role of p75(NTR) in developing retinae of other species, and the possible implications of this difference are discussed. 相似文献

One of the most important but still poorly understood issues in protein chemistry is the relationship between sequence and stability of proteins. Here, we present a method for analyzing the influence of each individual residue on the foldability and stability of an entire protein. A randomly mutated library of the crystallizable fragment of human immunoglobulin G class 1 (IgG1-Fc) was expressed on the surface of yeast, followed by heat incubation at 79 °C and selection of stable variants that still bound to structurally specific ligands. High throughput sequencing allowed comparison of the mutation rate between the starting and selected library pools, enabling the generation of a stability landscape for the entire CH3 domain of human IgG1 at single residue resolution. Its quality was analyzed with respect to (i) the structure of IgG1-Fc, (ii) evolutionarily conserved positions and (iii) in silico calculations of the energy of unfolding of all variants in comparison with the wild-type protein. In addition, this new experimental approach allowed the assignment of functional epitopes of structurally specific ligands used for selection [Fc γ‐receptor I (CD64) and anti-human CH2 domain antibody] to distinct binding regions in the CH2 domain. 相似文献

The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) has dual functions in cell survival and cell death but its intracellular signalling pathways are not understood. Here we describe that in rat brain and in pervanadate-stimulated PCNA and HEK293 cells p75NTR is phosphorylated at a single tyrosine residue within the cytosolic C-terminus. Phosphorylated tyrosine 308 constitutes a binding site for the ubiquitin ligase c-Cbl. This interaction is a prerequisite for ubiquitination of p75NTR. Our data suggest a c-Cbl-dependent ubiquitination of p75NTR involved in the regulation of p75NTR signalling. 相似文献

The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75(NTR)), a member of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily of receptors, undergoes multiple proteolytic cleavage events. These events are initiated by an alpha-secretase-mediated release of the extracellular domain followed by a gamma-secretase-mediated intramembrane cleavage. However, the specific determinants of p75(NTR) cleavage events are unknown. Many other substrates of gamma-secretase cleavage have been identified, including Notch, amyloid precursor protein, and ErbB4, indicating there is broad substrate recognition by gamma-secretase. Using a series of deletion mutations and chimeric receptors of p75(NTR) and the related Fas receptor, we have identified domains that are essential for p75(NTR) proteolysis. The initial alpha-secretase cleavage was extracellular to the transmembrane domain. Unfortunately, deletion mutants were not capable of defining the requirements of ectodomain shedding. Although this cleavage is promiscuous with respect to amino acid sequence, its position with respect to the transmembrane domain is invariant. The generation of chimeric receptors exchanging different domains of noncleavable Fas receptor with p75(NTR), however, revealed that a discrete domain above the membrane is sufficient for efficient cleavage of p75(NTR). Mass spectrometric analysis confirmed the cleavage can occur with a truncated p75(NTR) displaying only 15 extracellular amino acids in the stalk region. 相似文献
