Structural highlights
Publication Abstract from PubMedThe receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a multiligand cell surface macromolecule that plays a central role in the etiology of diabetes complications, inflammation, and neurodegeneration. The cytoplasmic domain of RAGE (C-terminal RAGE; ctRAGE) is critical for RAGE-dependent signal transduction. As the most membrane-proximal event, mDia1 binds to ctRAGE, and it is essential for RAGE ligand-stimulated phosphorylation of AKT and cell proliferation/migration. We show that ctRAGE contains an unusual alpha-turn that mediates the mDia1-ctRAGE interaction and is required for RAGE-dependent signaling. The results establish a novel mechanism through which an extracellular signal initiated by RAGE ligands regulates RAGE signaling in a manner requiring mDia1.
