Crystal structure of mouse MXRA8
Structural highlights
FunctionMXRA8_MOUSE Transmembrane protein which can modulate activity of various signaling pathways, probably via binding to integrin ITGAV:ITGB3 (PubMed:18366072, PubMed:22492581, PubMed:29702220). Mediates heterophilic cell-cell interactions in vitro (PubMed:18366072). Inhibits osteoclastogenesis downstream of TNFSF11/RANKL and CSF1, where it may function by attenuating signaling via integrin ITGB3 and MAP kinase p38 (PubMed:22492581). Plays a role in cartilage formation where it promotes proliferation and maturation of growth plate chondrocytes (PubMed:29702220). Stimulates formation of primary cilia in chondrocytes (PubMed:29702220). Enhances expression of genes involved in the hedgehog signaling pathway in chondrocytes, including the hedgehog signaling molecule IHH; may also promote signaling via the PTHLH/PTHrP pathway (PubMed:29702220). Plays a role in angiogenesis where it suppresses migration of endothelial cells and also promotes their apoptosis (By similarity). Inhibits VEGF-induced activation of AKT and p38 MAP kinase in endothelial cells (By similarity). Also inhibits VTN (vitronectin)-mediated integrin ITGAV:ITGB3 signaling and activation of PTK2/FAK (By similarity). May play a role in the maturation and maintenance of the blood-brain barrier (PubMed:14603461).[UniProtKB:Q9BRK3][1] [2] [3] [4] Publication Abstract from PubMedArthritogenic alphaviruses, such as Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), cause severe and debilitating rheumatic diseases worldwide, resulting in severe morbidity and economic costs. Recently, MXRA8 was reported as an entry receptor. Here, we present the crystal structures of the mouse MXRA8, human MXRA8 in complex with the CHIKV E protein, and the cryo-electron microscopy structure of human MXRA8 and CHIKV virus-like particle. MXRA8 has two Ig-like domains with unique structural topologies. This receptor binds in the "canyon" between two protomers of the E spike on the surface of the virion. The atomic details at the interface between the two binding entities reveal that both the two domains and the hinge region of MXRA8 are involved in interaction with CHIKV E1-E2 residues from two protomers. Notably, the stalk region of MXRA8 is critical for CHIKV virus entry. This finding provides important information regarding the development of therapeutic countermeasures against those arthritogenic alphaviruses.
