== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Interleukin 18 (IL-18), a member of the IL-1 family of cytokines, is an important regulator of innate and acquired immune responses. It signals through its ligand-binding primary receptor IL-18Ralpha and accessory receptor IL-18Rbeta. Here we report the crystal structure of IL-18 with the ectodomain of IL-18Ralpha, which reveals the structural basis for their specific recognition. It confirms that surface charge complementarity determines the ligand-binding specificity of primary receptors in the IL-1 receptor family. We suggest that IL-18 signaling complex adopts an architecture similar to other agonistic cytokines and propose a general ligand-receptor assembly and activation model for the IL-1 family.
