Integrin alphaIIB beta3 headpiece and RGD peptide complex
Structural highlights
DiseaseITA2B_HUMAN Defects in ITGA2B are a cause of Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) [MIM:273800; also known as thrombasthenia of Glanzmann and Naegeli. GT is the most common inherited disease of platelets. It is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by mucocutaneous bleeding of mild-to-moderate severity and the inability of this integrin to recognize macromolecular or synthetic peptide ligands. GT has been classified clinically into types I and II. In type I, platelets show absence of the glycoprotein IIb/beta-3 complexes at their surface and lack fibrinogen and clot retraction capability. In type II, the platelets express the glycoprotein IIb/beta-3 complex at reduced levels (5-20% controls), have detectable amounts of fibrinogen, and have low or moderate clot retraction capability. The platelets of GT 'variants' have normal or near normal (60-100%) expression of dysfunctional receptors.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] FunctionITA2B_HUMAN Integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 is a receptor for fibronectin, fibrinogen, plasminogen, prothrombin, thrombospondin and vitronectin. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in a wide array of ligands. It recognizes the sequence H-H-L-G-G-G-A-K-Q-A-G-D-V in fibrinogen gamma chain. Following activation integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 brings about platelet/platelet interaction through binding of soluble fibrinogen. This step leads to rapid platelet aggregation which physically plugs ruptured endothelial cell surface. Publication Abstract from PubMedCarefully soaking crystals with Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptides, we captured eight distinct RGD-bound conformations of the alphaIIbbeta3 integrin headpiece. Starting from the closed betaI domain conformation, we saw six intermediate betaI conformations and finally the fully open betaI with the hybrid domain swung out in the crystal lattice. The beta1-alpha1 backbone that hydrogen bonds to the Asp side chain of RGD was the first element to move followed by adjacent to metal ion-dependent adhesion site Ca(2+), alpha1 helix, alpha1' helix, beta6-alpha7 loop, alpha7 helix, and hybrid domain. We define in atomic detail how conformational change was transmitted over long distances in integrins, 40 A from the ligand binding site to the opposite end of the betaI domain and 80 A to the far end of the hybrid domain. During these movements, RGD slid in its binding groove toward alphaIIb, and its Arg side chain became ordered. RGD concentration requirements in soaking suggested a >200-fold higher affinity after opening. The thermodynamic cycle shows how higher affinity pays the energetic cost of opening.
