Glycoprotein (GP) IIb-IIIa is the major fibrinogen receptor on platelets and participates in platelet aggregation at the site of a wound. Integrin alpha v beta 3, which contains an identical beta-subunit, is expressed on endothelial cells and also serves as a fibrinogen receptor. Here, we demonstrate by several criteria that purified GPIIb-IIIa and integrin alpha v beta 3 bind to distinct sites on fibrinogen. First, a plasmin-generated fragment of fibrinogen lacking the RGD sequence at residues 572-574 retained the ability to bind GPIIb-IIIa, but failed to bind integrin alpha v beta 3. Second, a monoclonal antibody which exclusively recognizes the RGD sequence at fibrinogen A alpha chain residues 572-574 abolished interaction between integrin alpha v beta 3 and fibrinogen, but had only a minimal effect on fibrinogen binding to GPIIb-IIIa. Finally, we show that the difference in recognition of sites on fibrinogen by these two integrins is probably a consequence of their remarkably different ligand binding properties. Peptides corresponding to fibrinogen gamma chain residues 400-411 effectively blocked RGD sequence and fibrinogen binding by GPIIb-IIIa, but had no effect on the ability of integrin alpha v beta 3 to bind these ligands. We also show that integrin alpha v beta 3 has a higher affinity than GPIIb-IIIa for a synthetic hexapeptide containing the RGD sequence. In fact, this RGD-containing peptide was 150-fold more effective at blocking fibrinogen binding to integrin alpha v beta 3 than to GPIIb-IIIa. Collectively, our results demonstrate that integrins alpha v beta 3 and GPIIb-IIIa display qualitative and quantitative differences in their ligand binding properties, as is evident by their ability to interact with synthetic peptides. The ultimate result of these differences is the recognition of distinct sites on fibrinogen by the two integrins. These observations may have relevance in the processes of hemostasis and wound healing. 相似文献

Several receptors for the extracellular matrix protein collagen have been described which belong to the superfamily of receptors collectively known as integrins. Although several integrins have been shown to interact with extracellular matrix molecules via a common recognition site, arginine-glycine-aspartic Acid (RGD), within the beta 1 integrin subfamily, only the fibronectin receptor (alpha 5 beta 1) has been convincingly shown to interact with RGD. In the present study, we tested whether a collagen receptor could interact with RGD. Adhesion of an osteosarcoma cell line, MG-63, to immobilized collagen I was inhibited by the cyclic RGD-containing peptide, C*GRGDSPC* (where C* indicates that Cys participates in disulfide), and not by the linear GRGDSP or the non-RGD-containing cyclic peptide, C*GKGESPC*. Similarly, using collagen-Sepharose affinity chromatography, a heterodimeric protein could be specifically eluted from the column by the cyclic RGD peptide. Immunoprecipitations of the eluted material with monoclonal antibodies showed reactivity with the collagen receptor alpha 2 beta 1 and not alpha 3 beta 1. Our data demonstrate that RGD peptides can interact with the collagen receptor, and the differences seen with the linear and cyclic peptide suggest that the cyclic C*GRGDSPC* has a higher avidity for the receptor than the more flexible linear GRGDSP. In this paper, we provide supportive evidence that one possible mode of collagen interaction with alpha 2 beta 1 is via the RGD recognition sequence. 相似文献

Our previous studies showed that the alpha 5 beta 1 integrin selects cysteine pair-containing RGD peptides from a phage display library based on a random hexapeptide. We have therefore searched for more selective peptides for this integrin using a larger phage display library, where heptapeptides are flanked by cysteine residues, thus making the inserts potentially cyclic. Most of the phage sequences that bound to alpha 5 beta 1 (69 of 125) contained the RGD motif. Some of the heptapeptides contained an NGR motif. As the NGR sequence occurs in the cell-binding region of the fibronectin molecule, this sequence could contribute to the specific recognition of fibronectin by alpha 5 beta 1. Selection for high affinity peptides for alpha 5 beta 1 surprisingly yielded a sequence RRETAWA that does not bear obvious resemblance to known integrin ligand sequences. The synthetic cyclic peptide GACRRETAWACGA (*CRRETAWAC*) was a potent inhibitor of alpha 5 beta 1-mediated cell attachment to fibronectin. This peptide is nearly specific for the alpha 5 beta 1 integrin, because much higher concentrations were needed to inhibit the alpha v beta 1 integrin, and there was no effect on alpha v beta 3- and alpha v beta 5-mediated cell attachment to vitronectin. The peptide also did not bind to the alpha IIb beta 3 integrin. *CRRETAWAC* appears to interact with the same or an overlapping binding site in alpha 5 beta 1 as RGD, because cell attachment to *CRRETAWAC* coated on plastic was divalent cation dependent and could be blocked by an RGD-containing peptide. These results reveal a novel binding specificity in the alpha 5 beta 1 integrin. 相似文献

We have generated a panel of potent, selective monoclonal antibodies that bind human and mouse alpha(v)beta(6) integrin with high affinity (up to 15 pm). A subset of these antibodies blocked the binding of alpha(v)beta(6) to the transforming growth factor-beta1 latency-associated peptide with IC(50) values as low as 18 pm, and prevented the subsequent alpha(v)beta(6)-mediated activation of transforming growth factor-beta1. The antibodies also inhibited alpha(v)beta(6) binding to fibronectin. The blocking antibodies form two biochemical classes. One class, exemplified by the ligand-mimetic antibody 6.8G6, bound to the integrin in a divalent cation-dependent manner, contained an RGD motif or a related sequence in CDR3 of the heavy chain, was blocked by RGD-containing peptides, and was internalized by alpha(v)beta(6)-expressing cells. Despite containing an RGD sequence, 6.8G6 was specific for alpha(v)beta(6) and showed no cross-reactivity with the RGD-binding integrins alpha(v)beta(3), alpha(v)beta(8),or alpha(IIb)beta(3). The nonligand-mimetic blocking antibodies, exemplified by 6.3G9, were cation-independent, were not blocked by RGD-containing peptides, were not internalized, and did not contain RGD or related sequences. These two classes of antibody were unable to bind simultaneously to alpha(v)beta(6), suggesting that they may bind overlapping epitopes. The "ligand-mimetic" antibodies are the first to be described for alpha(v)beta(6) and resemble those described for alpha(IIb)beta(3). We also report for the first time the relative abilities of divalent cations to promote alpha(v)beta(6) binding to latency-associated peptide and to the ligand-mimetic antibodies. These antibodies should provide valuable tools to study the ligand-receptor interactions of alpha(v)beta(6) as well as the role of alpha(v)beta(6) in vivo. 相似文献

Several studies have addressed the interaction of the HIV Tat protein with the cell surface. Our analysis of the cell attachment-promoting activity of Tat and peptides derived from it revealed that the basic domain of Tat, not the arg-gly-asp (RGD) sequence, is required for cell attachment to Tat. Affinity chromatography with Tat peptides and immunoprecipitation with various anti-integrin antibodies suggest that the vitronectin-binding integrin, alpha v beta 5, is the cell surface protein that binds to the basic domain of Tat. The Tat basic domain contains the sequence RKKRRQRRR. A related sequence, KKQRFRHRNRKG, present in the heparin-binding domain of an alpha v beta 5 ligand, vitronectin, also bound alpha v beta 5 in affinity chromatography and, in combination with an RGD peptide, was an inhibitor of cell attachment to vitronectin. The alpha v beta 5 interaction with these peptides was not solely due to high content of basic amino acids in the ligand sequences; alpha v beta 5 did not bind substantially to peptides consisting entirely of arginine or lysine, whereas a beta 1 integrin did bind to these peptides. The interaction of alpha v beta 5 with Tat is atypical for integrins in that the binding to Tat is divalent cation independent, whereas the binding of the same integrin to an RGD- containing peptide or to vitronectin requires divalent cations. These data define an auxiliary integrin binding specificity for basic amino acid sequences. These basic domain binding sites may function synergistically with the binding sites that recognize RGD or equivalent sequences. 相似文献

Cellular adhesion receptors termed integrins play an important role in the interaction of cells with extracellular matrix (ECM) during wound healing, development and tumorigenesis. During such events, ECM may become modified or damaged which could alter the types of adhesive signals presented to cells. In this study, cell adhesion and affinity chromatography experiments were performed to determine whether different integrins interact with denatured versus native ECM molecules. Human melanoma cells were found to adhere to denatured versus native type I collagen through different integrins. The cells adhere to denatured collagen through the alpha v beta 3 integrin and this interaction is inhibited by an RGD containing peptide but not by a control peptide. In contrast, adhesion to native type I collagen appears to be mediated by several beta 1 integrins and thus, is not inhibited by either alpha v beta 3 antibodies or the RGD peptide. Affinity chromatography reveals a marked increase in the quantity of alpha v beta 3 isolated on denatured collagen versus native collagen-sepharose. These results suggest that RGD sites in type I collagen may be masked and that they become exposed upon denaturation of the molecule. Wounding of extracellular matrix may, thus, expose RGD sites in collagens that facilitate the interaction of cells with damaged extracellular matrix through RGD binding integrins. 相似文献

The interactions of platelets with fibrinogen mediate a variety of responses including adhesion, platelet aggregation, and fibrin clot retraction. Whereas it was assumed that interactions of the platelet integrin alpha IIb beta 3 with the AGDV sequence in the gamma C-domain of fibrinogen and/or RGD sites in the A alpha chains are involved in clot retraction and adhesion, recent data demonstrated that fibrinogen lacking these sites still supported clot retraction. These findings suggested that an unknown site in fibrinogen and/or other integrins participate in clot retraction. Here we have identified a sequence within gamma C that mediates binding of fibrinogen to platelets. Synthetic peptide duplicating the 365-383 sequence in gamma C, designated P3, efficiently inhibited clot retraction in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, P3 supported platelet adhesion and was an effective inhibitor of platelet adhesion to fibrinogen fragments. Analysis of overlapping peptides spanning P3 and mutant recombinant gamma C-domains demonstrated that the P3 activity is contained primarily within gamma 370-383. Integrins alpha IIb beta 3 and alpha 5 beta 1 were implicated in recognition of P3, since platelet adhesion to the peptide was blocked by function-blocking monoclonal antibodies against these receptors. Direct evidence that alpha IIb beta 3 and alpha 5 beta 1 bind P3 was obtained by selective capture of these integrins from platelet lysates using a P3 affinity matrix. Thus, these data suggest that the P3 sequence in the gamma C-domain of fibrinogen defines a previously unknown recognition specificity of alpha IIb beta 3 and alpha 5 beta 1 and may function as a binding site for these integrins. 相似文献

Many extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, particularly those in the vascular system, use their classical integrin-recognition motif Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) to interact with integrins. The RGD motif is generally located in flexible peptide loops whose variable conformation enables the relatively few integrins with broad specificity, such as alpha(v)beta(3) and alpha(IIb)beta(3), to bind to a large variety of different ECM proteins. However, certain ECM constituents, such as collagens and laminins, interact with integrins in a conformation-dependent manner, in which both the linear structure and spatial arrangement of the polypeptides are important for the formation of active binding sites. These interactions provide high specificity for the communication of cells with distinct members of the ECM. 相似文献

Integrins are a complex family of divalent cation-dependent cell adhesion receptors composed of one alpha and one beta subunit noncovalently bound to one another. A subset of integrins contains the alpha v subunit in association with one of several beta subunits (e.g. beta 3, beta 5, beta 1). We have recently identified a novel integrin beta subunit, beta 6, that is present in a number of epithelial cell lines. Using a polyclonal antibody raised against the carboxyl-terminal peptide of beta 6, we have now identified the integrin heterodimer, alpha v beta 6, on the surface of two human carcinoma cell lines. Using affinity chromatography of lysates from the pancreatic carcinoma cell line, FG-2, we demonstrate that alpha v beta 6 binds to fibronectin, but not to vitronectin or collagen I. In contrast, the alpha v beta 5 integrin, which is also expressed on FG-2 cells, binds exclusively to vitronectin. Immobilized collagen I does not interact with alpha v integrins, but binds beta 1-containing integrins. Both alpha v beta 6 and alpha v beta 5 are eluted from their respective immobilized ligands by a hexa-peptide containing the sequence Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD). RGD is highly effective in the presence of Ca2+, somewhat less effective in Mg2+, and virtually inactive in Mn2+. These results suggest that alpha v beta 6 functions as an RGD-dependent fibronectin receptor in FG-2 carcinoma cells. In agreement with this notion, cell adhesion assays show that FG-2 cell attachment to fibronectin is only partially inhibited by anti-beta 1 integrin antibodies, implying that other fibronectin receptors may be involved. Taken together with recent reports on the vitronectin receptor function of alpha v beta 5, our results suggest that the previously described carcinoma cell integrin, alpha v beta x (Cheresh, D. A., Smith, J. W., Cooper, H. M., and Quaranta, V. (1989) Cell 57, 59-69), is a mixture of at least two different receptors: alpha v beta 5, mediating adhesion to vitronectin, and alpha v beta 6, mediating adhesion to fibronectin. 相似文献

Destruction of the neovasculature is essential for tumor eradication by photodynamic therapy. Since the over-expression of integrins is correlated with tumor angiogenesis, we conjugated a photosensitizer (5-(4-carboxyphenyl)-10,15,20-triphenylchlorin or porphyrin) to the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin specific peptide RGD (H-Arg-Gly-Asp-OH) motif as a common sequence. We reported an efficient solid-phase synthesis of a new family of peptidic photosensitizers with linear or cyclic[RGDfK] RGD motif and compared conjugates in vitro selectivity and photodynamic activity. The conjugates were characterized by (1)H NMR, MALDI, UV-visible spectroscopy and singlet oxygen formation was performed. Chlorins containing linear and constrained RGD motif were incorporated up to 98- and 80-fold more, respectively, than the unconjugated photosensitizer over a 24-h exposure in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) over-expressing alpha(v)beta(3) integrin. Peptidic moiety also led to a non-specific increased cellular uptake by murine mammary carcinoma cells (EMT-6), lacking RGD binding receptors. Survival measurements demonstrated that HUVEC were greatly sensitive to conjugates-mediated photodynamic therapy. 相似文献

Platelet membrane glycoproteins and their function: an overview 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
T J Kunicki 《Blut》1989,59(1):30-34
The membrane glycoproteins (GP) of human platelets act as receptors that mediate two important functions, adhesion to the subendothelial matrix and platelet-platelet cohesion, or aggregation. Many of these glycoprotein receptors exist as noncovalently linked heterodimers, including those that belong to the supergene family of adhesion receptors called the integrins. Human platelets contain at least five members of this integrin family, including a collagen receptor (GP Ia-IIa; alpha 2, beta 1), a fibronectin receptor (GP Ic-IIa; alpha 5, beta 1), a laminin receptor (GP Ic'-IIa; alpha 6, beta 1), a vitronectin receptor (VnR; alpha v, beta 3), and a promiscuous, activation-dependent receptor that is thought to be the receptor most responsible for fibrinogen-dependent, platelet-platelet cohesion (GP IIb-IIIa; alpha IIb, beta 3). Some, but not all, of the integrins bind to a tripeptide sequence, arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD), on the adhesive proteins. In addition to the integrins, platelets contain other membrane glyco-proteins: GP Ib-IX, a receptor for von Willebrand factor, which is thought to be the receptor most responsible for platelet adhesion to the subendothelial matrix in a flowing system; GP V, which may be associated with GP Ib-IX and whose function remains unknown; and GP IV (GP IIIb), which functions as a receptor for thrombospondin and collagen. 相似文献

Many integrins recognize short RGD-containing amino acid sequences and such peptide sequences can be identified from phage libraries by panning with an integrin. Here, in a reverse strategy, we have used such libraries to isolate minimal receptor sequences that bind to fibronectin and RGD-containing fibronectin fragments in affinity panning. A predominant cyclic motif, *CWDDG/LWLC*, was obtained (the asterisks denote a potential disulfide bond). Studies using the purified phage and the corresponding synthetic cyclic peptides showed that *CWDDGWLC*-expressing phage binds specifically to fibronectin and to fibronectin fragments containing the RGD sequence. The binding did not require divalent cations and was inhibited by both RGD and *CWDDGWLC*-containing synthetic peptides. Conversely, RGD-expressing phage attached specifically to immobilized *CWDDGWLC*-peptide and the binding could be blocked by the respective synthetic peptides in solution. Moreover, fibronectin bound to a *CWDDGWLC*-peptide affinity column, and could be eluted with an RGD-containing peptide. The *CWDDGWLC*-peptide inhibited RGD-dependent cell attachment to fibronectin and vitronectin, but not to collagen. A region of the beta subunit of RGD-binding integrins that has been previously demonstrated to be involved in ligand binding includes a polypeptide stretch, KDDLW (in beta 3) similar to WDDG/LWL. Synthetic peptides corresponding to this region in beta 3 were found to bind RGD-displaying phage and conversion of its two aspartic residues into alanines greatly reduced the RGD binding. Polyclonal antibodies raised against the *CWDDGWLC*- peptide recognized beta 1 and beta 3 in immunoblots. These data indicate that the *CWDDGWLC*-peptide is a functional mimic of ligand binding sites of RGD-directed integrins, and that the structurally similar site in the integrin beta subunit is a binding site for RGD. 相似文献

The integrin alpha4beta1 is involved in mediating exfiltration of leukocytes from the vasculature. It interacts with a number of proteins up-regulated during the inflammatory response including VCAM-1 and the CS-1 alternatively spliced region of fibronectin. In addition it binds the multifunctional protein osteopontin (OPN), which can act as both a cytokine and an extracellular matrix molecule. Here we map the region of human OPN that supports cell adhesion via alpha4beta1 using GST fusion proteins. We show that alpha4beta1 expressed in J6 cells interacts with intact OPN when the integrin is in a high activation state, and by deletion mapping that the alpha4beta1 binding region in OPN lies between amino acid residues 125 and 168 (aa125-168). This region contains the central RGD motif of OPN, which also interacts with integrins alphavbeta3, alphavbeta5, alphavbeta1, alpha8beta1, and alpha5beta1. Mutating the RGD motif to RAD had no effect on the interaction with alpha4beta1. To define the binding site the region incorporating aa125-168 was divided into 5 overlapping peptides expressed as GST fusion proteins. Two peptides supported adhesion via alpha4beta1, aa132-146, and aa153-168; of these only a synthetic peptide, SVVYGLR (aa162-168), derived from aa153-168 was able to inhibit alpha4beta1 binding to CS-1. These data identify the motif SVVYGLR as a novel peptide inhibitor of alpha4beta1, and the primary alpha4beta1 binding site within OPN. 相似文献

The amino acid sequence Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) is highly conserved on the VP1 proteins of different serotypes and subtypes of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) and is essential for cell attachment. This sequence is also found in certain extracellular matrix proteins that bind to a family of cell surface receptors called integrins. Within the Picornaviridae family, enterovirus coxsackievirus A9 also has an RGD motif on its VP1 capsid protein and has recently been shown to utilize the vitronectin receptor integrin alpha V beta 3 as a receptor on monkey kidney cells. Competition binding experiments between type A12 FMDV and coxsackievirus A9 using BHK-21 and LLC-MK2 cells revealed shared receptor specificity between these two viruses. Polyclonal anti-serum to the vitronectin receptor and a monoclonal antibody to the alpha V subunit inhibited both FMDV binding and plaque formation, while a monoclonal antibody to the beta 3 subunit inhibited virus binding. In contrast, antibodies to the fibronectin receptor (alpha 5 beta 1) or to the integrin (alpha V beta 5) had no effect on either binding or plaque formation. These data demonstrate that the alpha V beta 3 vitronectin receptor can function as a receptor for FMDV. 相似文献

The integrin alpha(v)beta(3) is the major receptor mediating the attachment of osteoclasts to the extracellular matrix in bone and plays a critical role in bone resorption and bone remodeling. Most of the ligands interacting with the alpha(v)beta(3) receptor contain an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif. Recently, we have identified two small RGD peptides, containing a benzophenone moiety at either the carboxyl or amino terminus, that photo-cross-linked within the beta(3)[99-118] [Bitan, G., et al. (1999) Biochemistry 38, 3414-3420] or the beta(3)[167-171] [Bitan, G., et al. (2000) Biochemistry 39, 11014-11023] sequence, respectively, of the alpha(v)beta(3) receptor in a selective fashion. Here, we report the synthesis of a photoreactive analogue of echistatin (a 49-amino acid peptide), a potent RGD-containing antagonist of the alpha(v)beta(3) receptor both in vitro and in vivo. This bioactive analogue is substituted at position 45 with a p-benzoyl moiety (pBz(2)), located within the flexible C-terminal domain and removed 20 amino acid residues from the R(24)GD(26) triad. This C-terminal domain was reported to contribute to receptor binding affinity by acting as an auxiliary binding site. The radiolabeled (125)I-[Arg(35),Lys(45)(N(epsilon)-pBz(2))]-echistatin photo-cross-links effectively to a site within the beta(3)[209-220] sequence. Residues in this domain have been reported to be part of the metal ion-dependent adhesion site (MIDAS). Receptor fragments overlapping this domain were reported to bind to fibrinogen and block fibrinogen binding to alpha(IIb)beta(3), the platelet integrin receptor. Taken together, position 45 in echistatin, located within an auxiliary binding site in echistatin, cross-links to a site distinct from the two previously reported sites, beta(3)[99-118] and beta(3)[167-171], which cross-link to photophores flanking the RGD triad. These cross-linking data support the hypothesis that the ligand-bound conformation of the integrin beta(3) subunit differs from the known conformation of I domains. 相似文献

Cell adhesion is characterized by an integrin-mediated ligand binding event followed by reorganization of the actin-cytoskeleton leading to cell spreading and/or migration. In this report we examine the role of integrin alpha v beta 3 in mediating cell attachment to vitronectin or a RGD-containing peptide in the presence of cytochalasin B to prevent actin polymerization. Under these conditions cell attachment to a RGD-containing peptide can be dissociated by excess soluble ligand whereas cells attached to vitronectin cannot. These results suggest that alpha v beta 3-mediated cell attachment to vitronectin results in a highly stabilized interaction that is independent of the actin-cytoskeleton. To investigate the molecular nature of this interaction alpha v beta 3 was purified to homogeneity, and its binding properties toward various ligands were measured in a solid-phase receptor assay. The data indicate that alpha v beta 3 binds to vitronectin or fibronectin in a nondissociable manner whereas a RGD-containing peptide derived from vitronectin binds specifically but is completely dissociable with a Kd of 9.4 x 10(-7) M. Moreover, chemical modification of alpha v beta 3 with limited glutaraldehyde treatment allowed vitronectin to bind in a RGD-dependent and dissociable manner, suggesting that receptor conformational changes or specific amino acid residues proximal to the ligand binding site(s) are involved in the stabilization event. Thus, in the absence of cytoskeletal proteins or other cellular components, integrin alpha v beta 3-ligand binding involves recognition of the RGD sequence leading to a highly stabilized protein-protein association. 相似文献

A small library of cyclic RGD pentapeptide mimics incorporating stereoisomeric 5,6- and 5,7-fused bicyclic lactams was synthesized. This library was found to contain high-affinity ligands for the alpha(v)beta3 integrin. The aim of this study was to investigate activity, selectivity, and structure of these ligands in order to identify new specific alpha(v)-integrin antagonists that could be evaluated as tumor angiogenesis inhibitors. In vitro screening, including receptor-binding assays to purified alpha(v)beta3, alpha(v)beta5, and alpha5beta1 integrins, and platelet aggregation assay, revealed ST1646 as a potent, highly selective alpha(v)beta3/alpha(v)beta5 integrin antagonist. Structure determination of the cyclic RGD pentapeptide mimics performed by a combination of NMR spectroscopy, and molecular mechanics and dynamics calculations showed a strong dependence of the RGD cyclopeptide conformation on lactam ring size and stereochemistry. ST1646 revealed the highest ability within the library to adopt the proper RGD orientation required for binding to the alpha(v)beta3 integrin, as deduced from the recently solved crystal structure of the extracellular segment of integrin alpha(v)beta3 in complex with a cyclic pentapeptide ligand. 相似文献

The NC1 domains of human type IV collagen, in particular alpha3NC1, are inhibitors of angiogenesis and tumor growth (Petitclerc, E., Boutaud, A., Prestayko, A., Xu, J., Sado, Y., Ninomiya, Y., Sarras, M. P., Jr., Hudson, B. G., and Brooks, P. C. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 275, 8051-8061). The recombinant alpha3NC1 domain contained a RGD site as part of a short collagenous sequence at the N terminus, designated herein as RGD-alpha3NC1. Others, using synthetic peptides, have concluded that this RGD site is nonfunctional in cell adhesion, and therefore, the anti-angiogenic activity is attributed exclusively to alpha(v)beta(3) integrin interactions with non-RGD motifs of the RGD-alpha3NC1 domain (Maeshima, Y., Colorado, P. C., and Kalluri, R. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 275, 23745-23750). This nonfunctionality is surprising given that RGD is a binding site for alpha(v)beta(3) integrin in several proteins. In the present study, we used the alpha3NC1 domain with or without the RGD site, expressed in HEK 293 cells for native conformation, as an alternative approach to synthetic peptides to assess the functionality of the RGD site and non-RGD motifs. Our results demonstrate a predominant role of the RGD site for endothelial adhesion and for binding of alpha(v)beta(3) and alpha(v)beta(5) integrins. Moreover, we demonstrate that the two non-RGD peptides, previously identified as the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin-binding sites of the alpha3NC1 domain, are 10-fold less potent in competing for integrin binding than the native protein, indicating the importance of additional structural and/or conformational features of the alpha3NC1 domain for integrin binding. Therefore, the RGD site, in addition to non-RGD motifs, may contribute to the mechanisms of endothelial cell adhesion in the human vasculature and the anti-angiogenic activity of the RGD-alpha3NC1 domain. 相似文献

The binding of fibronectin (Fn) to several integrins involves the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) tripeptide sequence. However, linear synthetic RGD peptides do not completely mimic the cell attachment activity of intact Fn or certain large Fn fragments. This suggests that the integrin-Fn interaction involves a more extended surface of Fn than that provided by the RGD sequence. To test this possibility, three novel monoclonal anti-Fn antibodies that inhibit its binding to a purified integrin, alpha IIb beta 3, were developed. The epitopes of these three antibodies mapped to a region at least 55 residues amino-terminal of the RGD sequence. Further, recombinant fragments of Fn containing these epitopes and lacking the RGD site also inhibited the binding of Fn to purified alpha IIb beta 3. These fragments, which spanned Fn residues 1359-1436, bound to alpha IIb beta 3 in a divalent cation-dependent manner. In addition, this region of Fn bound specifically to alpha IIb beta 3 on thrombin-stimulated but not resting platelets. These results demonstrate the presence of additional sequences in Fn that interact with integrin alpha IIb beta 3 and suggest that multiple sites in Fn are involved in its recognition by this integrin. 相似文献

Adhesive interactions of platelet integrin alpha(IIb)beta3 with fibrinogen and fibrin are central events in hemostasis and thrombosis. However, the mechanisms by which alpha(IIb)beta3 binds these ligands remain incompletely understood. We have recently demonstrated that alpha(IIb)beta3 binds the gamma365-383 sequence in the gammaC-domain of fibrin(ogen). This sequence contains neither the AGDV nor the RGD recognition motifs, known to bind alpha(IIb)beta3, suggesting the different specificity of the integrin. Here, using peptide arrays, mutant fibrinogens, and recombinant mutant gammaC-domains, we have examined the mechanism whereby alpha(IIb)beta3 binds gamma365-383. The alpha(IIb)beta3-binding activity was localized within gamma370-381, with two short sequences, gamma370ATWKTR375 and gamma376WYSMKK381, being able to independently bind the integrin. Furthermore, recognition of alpha(IIb)beta3 by gamma370-381 depended on four basic residues, Lys373, Arg375, Lys380, and Lys381. Simultaneous replacement of these amino acids and deletion of the gamma408AGDV411 sequence in the recombinant gammaC-domain resulted in the loss of alpha(IIb)beta3-mediated platelet adhesion. Confirming the critical roles of the identified residues, abnormal fibrinogen Kaiserslautern, in which gammaLys380 is replaced by Asn, demonstrated delayed clot retraction and impaired alpha(IIb)beta3 binding. Also, a mutant recombinant fibrinogen modeled after the naturally occurring variant Osaka V (gammaArg375 --> Gly) showed delayed clot retraction and reduced binding to purified alpha(IIb)beta3. These results identify the gamma370-381 sequence of fibrin(ogen) as the binding site for alpha(IIb)beta3 involved in platelet adhesion and clot retraction and define the new recognition specificity of this integrin. 相似文献
