Hyaluronic acid (HA) has been shown to promote angiogenesis. However, the mechanism behind this effect remains largely unknown. Therefore, in this study, the mechanism of HA-induced angiogenesis was examined. CD44 and PKCδ were shown to be necessary for induction of the receptor for HA-mediated cell motility (RHAMM), a HA-binding protein. RHAMM was necessary for HA-promoted cellular invasion and endothelial cell tube formation. Cytokine arrays showed that HA induced the expression of plasminogen activator-inhibitor-1 (PAI), a downstream target of TGFβ receptor signaling. The induction of PAI-1 was dependent on CD44 and PKCδ. HA also induced an interaction between RHAMM and TGFβ receptor I, and induction of PAI-1 was dependent on RHAMM and TGFβ receptor I. Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3), which is decreased by HA via rac1, reduced induction of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) by HA. ERK, which interacts with RHAMM, was necessary for induction of PAI-1 by HA. Snail, a downstream target of TGFβ signaling, was also necessary for induction of PAI-1. The down regulation of PAI-1 prevented HA from enhancing endothelial cell tube formation and from inducing expression of angiogenic factors, such as ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and MMP-2. HDAC3 also exerted reduced expression of MMP-2. In this study, we provide a novel mechanism of HA-promoted angiogenesis, which involved RHAMM-TGFβRI signaling necessary for induction of PAI-1. 相似文献

Receptor-bound urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) remains associated to the surface of human monocytes for many hours. Monocytes induced to migrate in a chemotactic gradient of f-Met-Leu-Phe rapidly polarize their uPA receptors to the leading front of the cells. Receptor-bound enzyme can be inhibited by plasminogen activator inhibitor 2 (PAI-2), with a kinetics comparable to that determined for the free enzyme, and uPA/PAI-2 complexes can bind to the uPA receptor. In contrast to the active enzyme, the uPA/PAI-2 complex is rapidly cleared from the monocyte cell surface; this involves an initial cleavage of the complex at the cell surface, followed by endocytosis and degradation. These results indicate that the uPA receptor can function both to focus plasmin-mediated extracellular matrix degradation in front of migrating cells, and to target uPA/PAI-2 enzyme/inhibitor complexes for degradation; they suggest that this receptor is a key determinant in the control of uPA-catalyzed extracellular proteolysis. 相似文献

The objective of this work was to investigate whether fibrinolysis plays a role in establishing recurrent coronary event risk in a previously identified group of postinfarction patients. This group of patients was defined as having concurrently high levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and C-reactive protein (CRP) and was previously demonstrated to be at high-risk for recurrent coronary events. Potential risk associations of a genetic polymorphism of plasminogen activator inhibitor-2 (PAI-2) were probed as well as potential modulatory effects on such risk of a polymorphism of low-density lipoprotein receptor related protein (LRP-1), a scavenger receptor known to be involved in fibrinolysis in the context of cellular internalization of plasminogen activator/plansminogen activator inhibitor complexes. To this end, Cox multivariable modeling was performed as a function of genetic polymorphisms of PAI-2 (SERPINB, rs6095) and LRP-1 (LRP1, rs1800156) as well as a set of clinical parameters, blood biomarkers, and genetic polymorphisms previously demonstrated to be significantly and independently associated with risk in the study population including cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP, rs708272), p22phox (CYBA, rs4673), and thrombospondin-4 (THBS4, rs1866389). Risk association was demonstrated for the reference allele of the PAI-2 polymorphism (hazard ratio 0.41 per allele, 95% CI 0.20-0.84, p=0.014) along with continued significant risk associations for the p22phox and thrombospondin-4 polymorphisms. Additionally, further analysis revealed interaction of the LRP-1 and PAI-2 polymorphisms in generating differential risk that was illustrated using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. We conclude from the study that fibrinolysis likely plays a role in establishing recurrent coronary risk in postinfarction patients with concurrently high levels of HDL-C and CRP as manifested by differential effects on risk by polymorphisms of several genes linked to key actions involved in the fibrinolytic process. 相似文献

Mapping a common interaction site used by Plasmodium falciparum Duffy binding-like domains to bind diverse host receptors 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The Duffy binding-like (DBL) domain is a key adhesive module in Plasmodium falciparum, present in both erythrocyte invasion ligands (EBLs) and the large and diverse P. falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) family of cytoadherence receptors. DBL domains bind a variety of different host receptors, including intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), a receptor interaction that may have a role in infected erythrocyte binding to cerebral blood vessels and cerebral malaria. In this study, we expressed the nearly full complement of DBLbeta-C2 domains from the IT4/25/5 (IT4) parasite isolate and showed that ICAM-1-binding domains (DBLbeta-C2(ICAM-1)) were confined to group B and group C PfEMP1 proteins and were not present in group A, suggesting that ICAM-1 selection pressure differs between PfEMP1 groups. To further dissect the molecular determinants of binding, we modelled a DBLbeta-C2(ICAM-1) domain on a solved DBL structure and created alanine substitution mutants in two DBLbeta-C2(ICAM-1) domains. This analysis indicates that the DBLbeta-C2::ICAM-1 interaction maps to the equivalent glycan binding region of EBLs, and suggests a general model for how DBL domains evolve under dual selection for host receptor binding and immune evasion. 相似文献

Complex DNA viruses have tapped into cellular serpin responses that act as key regulatory steps in coagulation and inflammatory cascades. Serp-1 is one such viral serpin that effectively protects virus-infected tissues from host inflammatory responses. When given as purified protein, Serp-1 markedly inhibits vascular monocyte invasion and plaque growth in animal models. We have investigated mechanisms of viral serpin inhibition of vascular inflammatory responses. In vascular injury models, Serp-1 altered early cellular plasminogen activator (tissue plasminogen activator), inhibitor (PAI-1), and receptor (urokinase-type plasminogen activator) expression (p < 0.01). Serp-1, but not a reactive center loop mutant, up-regulated PAI-1 serpin expression in human endothelial cells. Treatment of endothelial cells with antibody to urokinase-type plasminogen activator and vitronectin blocked Serp-1-induced changes. Significantly, Serp-1 blocked intimal hyperplasia (p < 0.0001) after aortic allograft transplant (p < 0.0001) in PAI-1-deficient mice. Serp-1 also blocked plaque growth after aortic isograft transplant and after wire-induced injury (p < 0.05) in PAI-1-deficient mice indicating that increase in PAI-1 expression is not required for Serp-1 to block vasculopathy development. Serp-1 did not inhibit plaque growth in uPAR-deficient mice after aortic allograft transplant. We conclude that the poxviral serpin, Serp-1, attenuates vascular inflammatory responses to injury through a pathway mediated by native uPA receptors and vitronectin. 相似文献

PAI-1 and PAI-2 (plasminogen-activator inibitor types 1 and 2) are inhibitors of cell surface uPA (urokinase plasminogen activator). However, tumour expression of PAI-1 and PAI-2 correlates with poor compared with good patient prognosis in breast cancer respectively. This biological divergence may be related to additional functional roles of PAI-1. For example, the inhibition of uPA by PAI-1 reveals a cryptic high-affinity site within the PAI-1 moiety for the VLDLr (very-low-density-lipoprotein receptor), which sustains cell signalling events initiated by binding of uPA to its receptor. These interactions and subsequent signalling events promote proliferation of breast cancer cells. Biochemical and structural analyses show that, unlike PAI-1, the PAI-2 moiety of uPA-PAI-2 does not contain a high-affinity-binding site for VLDLr, although uPA-PAI-2 is still efficiently endocytosed via this receptor in breast cancer cells. Furthermore, global protein tyrosine phosphorylation events were not sustained by uPA-PAI-2 and cell proliferation was not affected. We thus propose a structurally based mechanism for these differences between PAI-1 and PAI-2 and suggest that PAI-2 is able to inhibit and clear uPA activity without initiating mitogenic signalling events through VLDLr. 相似文献

Complexes between tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and its rapidly acting inhibitor plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) are bound, internalized, and degraded by HepG2 cells. The mechanism involves endocytosis mediated by a specific high-affinity receptor. However, the particular domains of the complex that are recognized by the receptor have not been elucidated. To identify the determinants involved in ligand binding to the receptor, several variants of t-PA were assessed for their ability to form complexes with PAI-1 and thereby to inhibit specific cellular binding of complexes between structurally unmodified 125I-t-PA and PAI-1. Catalytically active variants lacking selected structural domains form complexes with PAI-1 and inhibit 125I-t-PA.PAI-1 binding to HepG2 cells. In addition, several forms of the plasminogen activator urokinase (u-PA), which shares partial structural homology with t-PA, were evaluated as competitors of cellular binding. The catalytically active two-chain forms of u-PA, but not the inactive proenzyme single-chain form, complex with PAI-1 and inhibit specific binding of 125I-t-PA.PAI-1, suggesting that the serine protease domain, rather than other domains, may confer the determinants required for cellular binding. However, a mutant t-PA with markedly reduced catalytic activity, resulting from replacement of the active site serine with threonine, not only forms complexes with PAI-1 but also inhibits specific cellular binding of unmodified 125I-t-PA.PAI-1. These data indicate that specific binding of t-PA.PAI-1 to HepG2 cells does not require a serine-containing catalytic site in the protease domain. To determine whether binding of the complex is mediated through other components of t-PA or through structural elements of PAI-1, both t-PA and PAI-1 were examined separately for capacity to bind directly to HepG2 cells. To exclude potential interactions with components of the extracellular matrix which contains binding sites for PAI-1, ligand binding to HepG2 cells in suspension was assessed. Although neither t-PA nor PAI-1 alone binds specifically to HepG2 cells, the preformed t-PA.PAI-1 complexes do. These findings suggest that specific binding of t-PA.PAI-1 requires elements of the PAI-1 moiety and/or parts of the protease domain of t-PA. 相似文献

Rhinovirus infection is the most common cause of acute exacerbations of inflammatory lung diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, where it provokes steroid refractory and abnormally intense neutrophilic inflammation that can be life threatening. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression correlates with disease severity and neutrophil infiltration in these conditions. However, the role of EGFR signaling in rhinovirus infection is unknown. We measured the key determinants of neutrophilic inflammation interleukin (IL)-8 and ICAM-1 in rhinovirus (RV16 serotype)-infected bronchial epithelial cells, BEAS-2B. RV16 infection stimulated IL-8 and ICAM-1 expression, which was further elevated (2-fold) by transient up-regulation of EGFR levels. Detection of viral RNA by quantitative real time PCR confirmed that enhanced expression was not associated with increased viral replication. EGFR ligands (epiregulin, amphiregulin, and heparin-binding epidermal growth factor) were induced by RV16 infection, and inhibition of metalloproteases responsible for ligand shedding partially suppressed this response. The EGFR inhibitor AG1478, completely blocked IL-8 and ICAM-1 expression to basal levels, as did the specific Erk1/2 inhibitor U0126. The p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor SB203580 blocked IL-8 secretion but not ICAM-1 expression, whereas the PI3K inhibitor wortmannin was ineffective in both responses. Kinase inactive K721R EGFR, which is selectively deficient in STAT signaling, reversed RV16 responses associated with EGFR overexpression. In conclusion, RV16 infection rapidly promotes induction of EGFR ligands and utilizes EGFR signaling to increase IL-8 and ICAM-1 levels. These results suggest that targeting EGFR may provide a selective therapy that dampens neutrophil-driven inflammation without compromising essential antiviral pathways mediated by pathogen recognition receptors such as TLR3. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2) is a member of the serine protease inhibitor (SERPIN) superfamily and forms stable complexes with urokinase type plasminogen activator (uPA). uPA can be found on the cell surface attached to its specific receptor (uPAR), allowing for controlled degradation of the extracellular matrix by the activation of plasminogen into plasmin. The aim of this study was to evaluate if PAI-2 could also be detected on the cell surface, providing a means of regulating the activity of cell surface uPA. METHODS: Intact or permeabilized cell lines or human peripheral blood leukocytes were assayed by flow cytometry for cell surface uPA or PAI-2. Plasma membrane-enriched preparations prepared from Jurkat, HaCaT, THP-1, U937, or MM6 cells were assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) or Western blotting for PAI-2 antigen. RESULTS: By flow cytometry, cell surface PAI-2 was not detected on monocytes from human peripheral blood, MM6, or HaCaT cells. Cell surface PAI-2 was only detected very weakly on the surface of U937 cells. In contrast, PAI-2 could be detected in all of these cells when fixed and permeabilized. By ELISA, PAI-2 was very abundant in the cytosol-enriched preparations of U937, MM6, and HaCaT cells, but was present in lower amounts in the plasma membrane-enriched preparations. By Western blotting, monomeric nonglycosylated PAI-2, but not uPA/PAI-2 complexes, could be detected in the cytosol and plasma membrane-enriched preparations. CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that PAI-2 cannot be detected on the surface of PAI-2-expressing cells, and confirm that PAI-2 is predominantly a cytosolic protein. 相似文献

Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) has anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombogenic properties both in cell culture and animal models. Although adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) and laminin receptor (LR) are two putative receptors for PEDF, which receptor mainly mediates the beneficial effects of PEDF is largely unknown. In this study, we addressed the issue. siRNA raised against LR (siLR) and siATGL transfection dramatically decreased LR and ATGL levels in human cultured myeloma cells, respectively. Ten nM PEDF significantly reduced vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) mRNA levels in siCon- or siATGL-transfected myeloma cells, whereas PEDF increased rather than decreased these gene expressions in siLR-transfected cells. Neutralizing antibody directed against LR (LR-Ab) or LR antagonist actually bound to LR and reduced mRNA levels of VEGF, MCP-1, ICAM-1 and PAI-1 in myeloma cells. Further, pre-treatment of LR-Ab or LR antagonist suppressed the binding of PEDF to LR and resultantly blocked the effects of PEDF in myeloma cells. In addition, high concentration of LR agonist mimicked the actions of PEDF on these gene expressions in myeloma cells. This study indicates that PEDF causes anti-angiogenic, anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombogenic reactions in myeloma cells through the interaction with LR. Target domain of LR agonist and antagonist might be involved in the PEDF-signaling to gene suppression in myeloma cells. 相似文献

The bone resorbing agent, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), was found to alter several components of the plasminogen activator (PA)/plasmin pathway in primary cultures of rat neonatal osteoblast-like cells. The mRNA and activities of both urokinase-type PA (uPA) and tissue-type PA (tPA) were enhanced by PGE2 treatment. The presence of mRNA for the uPA receptor (uPAR) has been demonstrated in these cells and steady-state levels shown to be greatly enhanced, the response being rapid and sustained for at least 24 hours. mRNA for plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) was modulated in a biphasic manner, with inhibition of the constitutive level apparent at 4 hours of treatment and stimulation apparent at 12 hours and longer, while PAI-1 protein, measured by an ELISA assay for rat PAI-1, was diminished over this period. Neither PAI-2 mRNA nor mRNA for the broad spectrum protease inhibitor, protease nexin-1 (PN-1), was found to be modulated by PGE2. Therefore, PGE2 is likely to stimulate cell surface proteolytic activity, since uPA mRNA and cell-associated activity were elevated, as was mRNA for the cellular receptor for uPA. Although it was not possible to measure uPAR number and affinity it seems likely that elevated uPAR mRNA would translate into increased uPARs which would localize the increased uPA activity to the pericellular region. tPA mRNA and activity were also increased transiently with the activity inhibited with prolonged incubations, apparently by PAI-1. Elevation of tPA mRNA and activity may result in elevated activity within the extracellular matrix as tPA has been reported to associate with several matrix proteins. Thus the early effect of PGE2 would be to promote proteolysis, both pericellularly and in the extracellular matrix. The inhibition of PAI-1 mRNA and protein, which would contribute to the elevation of activity, is due to PGE2, but the later stimulatory effect on PAI-1 mRNA may be due to feedback regulation by transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ), secreted by osteoblasts and activated by elevated levels of PA. © 1995 Wiley-Liss Inc. 相似文献

Molecular and functional interdependence of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator system with integrins 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The serine protease urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA), its inhibitor PAI-1, and its cellular receptor uPA-R (CD87) are of crucial importance during cellular invasion and migration, required for a variety of physio- and pathophysiological processes. It has become increasingly evident in recent years that the uPA/uPA-R-system has far more functional properties than plasminogen activation alone. This is reflected by its involvement in cellular events such as proliferation, adhesion, migration, and chemotaxis. Since uPA-R lacks a transmembrane domain and thus on its own is not capable of transmitting signals into cells, association and functional cooperation with other signaling molecules/receptors is needed. In this respect, one group of adhesion and signaling receptors, the integrins, have been identified which constitute, together with the uPA/uPA-R-system, an interdependent biological network by which the uPA/uPA-R-system broadly affects integrin functions and vice versa. Moreover, there is a growing body of evidence that cellular uPA, uPA-R, and PAI-1 expression is under control of specific ECM/integrin interactions and also that integrins are regulated by components of the uPA/uPA-R-system. By this multifaceted crosstalk, cells may modulate their proteolytic, adhesive, and migratory activities and monitor ECM integrity in their microenvironment. 相似文献

Structure of human rhinovirus serotype 2 (HRV2) 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Human rhinoviruses are classified into a major and a minor group based on their binding to ICAM-1 or to members of the LDL-receptor family, respectively. They can also be divided into groups A and B, according to their sensitivity towards a panel of antiviral compounds. The structure of human rhinovirus 2 (HRV2), which uses the LDL receptor for cell attachment and is included in antiviral group B, has been solved and refined at 2.6 A resolution by X-ray crystallography to gain information on the peculiarities of rhinoviruses, in particular from the minor receptor group. The main structural differences between HRV2 and other rhinoviruses, including the minor receptor group serotype HRV1A, are located at the internal protein shell surface and at the external antigenic sites. In the interior, the N termini of VP1 and VP4 form a three-stranded beta-sheet in an arrangement similar to that present in poliovirus, although myristate was not visible at the amino terminus of VP4 in the HRV2 structure. The betaE-betaF loop of VP2, a linear epitope within antigenic site B recognized by monoclonal antibody 8F5, adopts a conformation considerably different from that found in the complex of 8F5 with a synthetic peptide of the same sequence. This either points to considerable structural changes impinged on this loop upon antibody binding, or to the existence of more than one single conformation of the loop when the virus is in solution. The hydrophobic pocket of VP1 was found to be occupied by a pocket factor apparently identical with that present in the major receptor group virus HRV16. Electron density, consistent with the presence of a viral RNA fragment, is seen stacked against a conserved tryptophan residue. 相似文献

Two distinct urokinase-serpin interactions regulate the initiation of cell surface-associated plasminogen activation. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Single-chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator (scu-PA) possesses enzymatic activity that increases by 2-3 orders of magnitude upon binding to its cellular cofactor, the u-PA receptor (u-PAR), hence activating an enzymatic cascade initially composed of zymogens. The present study demonstrates that plasminogen activator inhibitor type 3 (PAI-3) reversibly inhibits scu-PA in solution, maintaining the system "off." Because the scu-PA/PAI-3 interaction is reversible, cellular expression of u-PAR allows partitioning of scu-PA from PAI-3 to u-PAR with resultant expression of full enzymatic activity. PAI-3 that was originally complexed to scu-PA remains in solution, retaining its functional activity. Importantly, the scu-PA on cell surface u-PAR is protected from PAI-3 inhibition, remaining an effective activator in a PAI-rich environment. Plasmin formed as a result of scu-PA activity then cleaves scu-PA to the mature protease, two-chain u-PA (tcu-PA), which is efficiently and irreversibly inhibited by PAI-3 via the standard serpin mechanism, even on u-PAR. This data generates a new hypothesis which, in contrast to the previous paradigm, holds that receptor bound scu-PA is the initiating enzyme and that tcu-PA is generated not to augment enzymatic activity but rather to allow for inhibition and therefore appropriate regulation of the process. 相似文献

A binding protein for plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1-BP) was isolated from human plasma by a four-step procedure. 1) The 7 S globulin fraction of plasma was isolated by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300. 2) Human endothelial cell-type plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1), pretreated with 12 M urea, was added to this fraction (22 micrograms of PAI-1/ml of plasma), and a PAI-1 antigen peak with apparent mass 450 kDa (representing 65% of PAI-1 antigen and 85% of PAI activity) was isolated by gel filtration of this mixture. 3) The PAI-1.PAI-1-BP complex was further purified by immunoadsorption on an immobilized murine monoclonal antibody directed against PAI-1 (MA-7D4) and by elution with 4 M KSCN. 4) The complex was then dissociated by addition of excess human tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), and t-PA and PAI-1 antigen (t-PA.PAI-1 complexes and free t-PA and PAI-1) were removed by immunoadsorption on monoclonal antibodies directed against t-PA (MA-62E8) and against PAI-1 (MA-7D4 and MA-12A4). Sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis of the purified material under nonreducing conditions revealed two bands with apparent mass approximately equal to 150 kDa and two bands with mass 74 and 68 kDa. Reduced sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis displayed two main bands with apparent masses of 73 and 64 kDa. The PAI-1-BP reacts with urea-treated, but not with inactive PAI-1. t-PA dissociates the complex between PAI-1 and PAI-1-BP. PAI-1 in complex with PAI-1-BP is 2-3-fold more stable at 37 degrees C than purified PAI-1, suggesting that PAI-1-BP may stabilize PAI-1 in blood. The concentration of PAI-1-BP in plasma determined by titration with PAI-1 is approximately 130 mg/liter. The isolated PAI-1-BP was shown to be identical to S protein (vitronectin) both by cross-reactivity with monospecific rabbit antisera and by NH2-terminal amino acid sequence analysis. The gel filtration behavior, mobility on sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis, and concentration in plasma suggest that PAI-1-BP is a multimer (presumably a dimer) of S protein accounting for approximately 35% of the S protein in plasma. 相似文献

The low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-related protein 1B (LRP1B) is a newly identified member of the LDL receptor family and is closely related to LRP. It was discovered as a putative tumor suppressor and is frequently inactivated in lung cancer cells. In the present study, we used an LRP1B minireceptor (mLRP1B4), which mimics the function and trafficking of LRP1B, to explore the roles of LRP1B on the plasminogen activation system. We found that mLRP1B4 and urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) form immunoprecipitable complexes on the cell surface in the presence of complexes of uPA and its inhibitor, plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1). However, compared with cells expressing the analogous LRP minireceptor (mLRP4), cells expressing mLRP1B4 display a substantially slower rate of uPA.PAI-1 complex internalization. Expression of mLRP1B4, or an mLRP4 mutant deficient in endocytosis, leads to an accumulation of uPAR at the cell surface and increased cell-associated uPA and PAI-1 when compared with cells expressing mLRP4. In addition, we found that expression of mLRP1B or the mLRP4 endocytosis mutant impairs the regeneration of unoccupied uPAR on the cell surface and that this correlates with a diminished rate of cell migration. Taken together, these results demonstrate that LRP1B can function as a negative regulator of uPAR regeneration and cell migration. 相似文献

Group B coxsackieviruses (CVB) utilize the coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR) to recognize host cells. CAR is a membrane protein with two Ig-like extracellular domains (D1 and D2), a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic domain. The three-dimensional structure of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) in complex with full length human CAR and also with the D1D2 fragment of CAR were determined to approximately 22 A resolution using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). Pairs of transmembrane domains of CAR associate with each other in a detergent cloud that mimics a cellular plasma membrane. This is the first view of a virus-receptor interaction at this resolution that includes the transmembrane and cytoplasmic portion of the receptor. CAR binds with the distal end of domain D1 in the canyon of CVB3, similar to how other receptor molecules bind to entero- and rhinoviruses. The previously described interface of CAR with the adenovirus knob protein utilizes a side surface of D1. 相似文献
