Publication Abstract from PubMed Murine Natural Killer (NK) cells are regulated by the interaction of Ly49 receptors with major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) molecules. While the ligands for inhibitory Ly49 were considered to be restricted to classical MHC (MHC-Ia), we have shown that the non-classical MHC (MHC-Ib) molecule H2-M3 was a ligand for the inhibitory Ly49A. Here we establish that another MHC-Ib molecule, H2-Q10, is a bona fide ligand for the inhibitory Ly49C receptor. H2-Q10 bound to Ly49C with a lower affinity (~ 5muM) than that observed between Ly49C and MHC-Ia (H-2Kb/H-2Dd, both ~ 1muM) and this recognition could be prevented by cis interactions with H-2Kb in situ. In order to understand the molecular details underpinning Ly49/MHC-Ib recognition, we determined the crystal structures of H2-Q10 and Ly49C bound H2-Q10. Unliganded H2-Q10 adopted a classical MHC-I fold and possessed a peptide-binding groove that exhibited features similar to those found in MHC-Ia, explaining the diverse peptide-binding repertoire of H2-Q10. Ly49C bound to H2-Q10 underneath the peptide-binding platform to a region that encompassed residues from the alpha1, alpha2 and alpha3 domains, as well as the associated beta2-microglobulin subunit. This docking mode was conserved with that previously observed for Ly49C/H-2Kb. Indeed, structure-guided mutation of Ly49C indicated that Ly49C/H2-Q10 and Ly49C/H-2Kb possess similar energetic footprints focused around residues located within the Ly49C beta4-stand and L5 loop, which contact the underside of the peptide binding platform floor. Our data provides a structural basis for Ly49-MHC-Ib recognition and demonstrate that MHC-Ib represent an extended family of ligands for Ly49 molecules.
