crystal structure of the M. tuberculosis phosphate ABC transport receptor PstS-1 in complex with Fab p4-170
Structural highlights
FunctionPSTS1_MYCTU Functions in inorganic phosphate uptake, although probably not the main uptake protein under phosphate starvation (PubMed:15731097, PubMed:20933472). Binds phosphate; probably able to bind both H(2)PO(4)(-) and HPO(4)(2-) (PubMed:8294447, PubMed:12842040). Part of the ABC transporter complex PstSACB involved in phosphate import (Probable).[1] [2] [3] [4] A host TLR2 agonist (toll-like receptor), shown experimentally for human and mouse (PubMed:1906192, PubMed:19362712). Requires both host TLR1 and TLR2 as coreceptors to elicit host response in mouse (TLR6 may also play a role) neither CD14 or CD36 function as accessory receptors (PubMed:19362712). Protein purified from culture filtrate induces host (human) monocytes to produce TNF-alpha, IL-6 and IL-12 p40 (IL12B) via ERK1/2 (MAPK3 and MAPK1) and p38 MAPK pathways; MEK inhibitors U0126 and PD98059 and p38 inhibitor SB203580 block most cytokine production (PubMed:16622205). Host ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK activation is mediated mainly by TLR2, but also partially by TLR4, and unlike the case for lipoprotein LpqH the protein moiety of PstS1 seems to be the antigenic agent (PubMed:16622205). Greater activation of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK is seen in patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis than in tuberculin-negative patients (PubMed:16622205). Induces apoptosis when incubated with human monocyte-derived macrophages via TLR2 (PubMed:19140873). Protein purified from culture filtrate acts via TLR2 and TLR4 to induce host macrophage (shown for mouse) endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis via MAPK (at least JNK), C-C motif chemokine 2 (MCP-1, Ccl2) and ZC3H12 endoribonucleases (MCPIP, Zc3h12) (PubMed:25544271). Functions as an adhesin, binds to human and mouse macrophages via mannose residues, binds to the mouse macrophage mannose receptor (possibly Mrc1) and mediates bacterial phagocytosis (PubMed:25359607).[5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] Publication Abstract from PubMedMycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) exposure drives antibody responses, but whether patients with active tuberculosis elicit protective antibodies, and against which antigens, is still unclear. Here we generate monoclonal antibodies from memory B cells of one patient to investigate the B cell responses during active infection. The antibodies, members of four distinct B cell clones, are directed against the Mtb phosphate transporter subunit PstS1. Antibodies p4-36 and p4-163 reduce Mycobacterium bovis-BCG and Mtb levels in an ex vivo human whole blood growth inhibition assay in an FcR-dependent manner; meanwhile, germline versions of p4-36 and p4-163 do not bind Mtb. Crystal structures of p4-36 and p4-170, complexed to PstS1, are determined at 2.1 A and 2.4 A resolution, respectively, to reveal two distinctive PstS1 epitopes. Lastly, a prophylactic p4-36 and p4-163 treatment in Mtb-infected Balb/c mice reduces bacterial lung burden by 50%. Our study shows that inhibitory anti-PstS1 B cell responses arise during active tuberculosis.
