'''Crystal Structure of Mouse Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells 1 (TREM-1) at 1.76'''<br />
'''Crystal Structure of Mouse Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells 1 (TREM-1) at 1.76'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM) 1 is an activating, receptor expressed on myeloid cells whose ligand(s) remain elusive. TREM-1, stimulation activates neutrophils and monocytes and induces the secretion, of pro-inflammatory molecules, which amplifies the Toll-like, receptor-initiated responses to invading pathogens. In addition, TREM-1, mediates the septic shock pathway, and thus represents a potential, therapeutic target. We report the crystal structure of the mouse TREM-1, extracellular domain at 1.76A resolution. The mouse extracellular domain, is monomeric, consistent with our previous human TREM-1 structure, and, strongly supports the contention that the globular TREM-1 head is a, monomer contrary to proposals of a symmetric dimer.
