To understand the structural determinants of this phenomenon, we solved the structure of an agonistic HIP/I-A(g7) complex, both in isolation as well as bound to the 4.1-TCR. We find that HIP promiscuity of the 4.1-TCR is dictated, on the one hand, by an amino acid sequence pattern that ensures I-A(g7) binding and, on the other hand, by the presence of three acidic residues at positions P5, P7 and P8 that favor an optimal engagement by the 4.1-TCR's complementary determining regions. Surprisingly, comparison of the TCR-bound and unbound HIP/I-A(g7) structures reveals that 4.1-TCR binding triggers several novel and unique structural motions in both the I-A(g7) molecule and the peptide that are essential for docking. This observation indicates that the type 1 diabetes-associated I-A(g7) molecule is structurally malleable and that this plasticity allows the recognition of multiple peptides by individual TCRs that would otherwise be unable to do so. Structural plasticity in I-A(g7) links autoreactivity to hybrid insulin peptides in type I diabetes.,Erausquin E, Serra P, Parras D, Santamaria P, Lopez-Sagaseta J Front Immunol. 2022 Jul 28;13:924311. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.924311. eCollection , 2022.
