Abstract:

Molecular complexes, such as ligand–receptor complexes, are vital for both health and disease and can be shed into the circulation in soluble form. Relatively little is known about the biology of soluble ligand–receptor complexes. The functional importance of such complexes and their potential use as clinical biomarkers in diagnosis and therapy remains underappreciated. Most traditional technologies used to study ligand–receptor complexes measure the individual levels of soluble ligands or receptors rather than the complexes themselves. The fraction of receptors occupied by ligand, and the pot

Abstract:

Most ligand-receptor interactions result in an immediate generation of various second messengers and a subsequent association of the ligand-receptor complex to the cytoskeleton. Depending on the receptor involved, this linkage to the cytoskeleton has been suggested to play a role in the termination of second messenger generation and/or the endocytic process whereby the ligand-receptor complex is internalized. We have studied how the binding of chemotactic peptide-receptor complexes to the cytoskeleton of human neutrophils is accomplished. As much as 76% of the tritiated formylmethionyl-leucyl-

Naturally ligand independent constitutively active gp130 variants were described to be responsible for inflammatory hepatocellular adenomas.

Megalin (gp330) is a member of the low-density lipoprotein receptor gene family. Like other members of the family, it is an endocytic receptor that binds a number of specific ligands. Megalin also binds the receptor-associated protein (RAP) that serves as an exocytic traffic chaperone and inhibits ligand binding to the receptor. To investigate the fate of megalin/RAP complexes, we bound RAP glutathione-S-transferase fusion protein (RAP-GST) to megalin at the surface of L2 yolk sac carcinoma cells and followed the trafficking of the complexes by immunofluorescence and immunogold labeling and by

Abstract:

On binding to its receptor, epidermal growth factor (EGF) initiates a cascade of events leading to cell proliferation or differentiation. In addition, the EGF receptor itself is downregulated to attenuate mitogenic signaling. Downregulation occurs through trafficking of receptors to lysosomes, culminating in proteolytic destruction of both the receptor and ligand; however, endocytic sorting mechanisms that underlie lysosomal targeting remain obscure. The goal of this study was to explore one aspect of the molecular basis for ligand-induced lysosomal targeting and degradation of EGF receptors.

Abstract:

Cells interact with the extracellular environment by means of receptor molecules on their surface. Receptors can bind different ligands, leading to the formation of receptor–ligand complexes. For a subset of receptors, called receptor tyrosine kinases, binding to ligand enables sequential phosphorylation of intra-cellular residues, which initiates a signalling cascade that regulates cellular function and fate. Most mathematical modelling approaches employed to analyse receptor signalling are deterministic, especially when studying scenarios of high ligand concentration or large receptor number

Abstract:

To probe the mechanisms of endocytosis in alveolar macrophages, we examined the internalization rates of three different receptors. Initial rates of internalization for mannosylated BSA, diferric transferrin and alpha-macroglobulin-proteinase complexes were all different. Although the absolute rates of internalization varied depending on the cell preparation, transferrin was internalized at 10-20% and alpha-macroglobulin-proteinase complex at 40-60% of the rate of manosylated-BSA. Incubation of cells with transferrin did not affect the rate of internalization of mannosylated BSA or alpha-macro

Abstract:

We have expressed recombinant human vitamin D receptor and its ligand-binding domain in Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) insect cells with a 30-litre bioreactor. Both proteins were purified to apparent homogeneity with yields of 0.5-3.5 mg/l. Gel-filtration analyses indicated that the purified human vitamin D receptor and its ligand-binding domain were present as monomers in solution. The purified vitamin D receptor and its ligand-binding domain were demonstrated to bind 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 with high affinity, the Kd values ranging from 0.9 to 1.2 nM.

Abstract:

Abstract Erythropoietin (EPO) stimulates proliferation and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells. Several lines of evidence indicate that the most likely mechanism of EPO receptor (EPO-R) activation by EPO is homodimerization of the receptor on the surface of erythrocyte precursors. Therefore, we argued that it should be possible to raise EPO-R monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) that would activate the receptor by dimerization and thus mimic EPO action. We have identified such an agonist MoAb (MoAb34) directed against the extracellular EPO binding domain of the EPO-R. This bivalent IgG anti

Abstract:

Video-enhanced microscopy was used to examine the interaction of elastin- or laminin-coated gold particles with elastin binding proteins on the surface of live cells. By visualizing the binding events in real time, it was possible to determine the specificity and avidity of ligand binding as well as to analyze the motion of the receptor-ligand complex in the plane of the plasma membrane. Although it was difficult to interpret the rates of binding and release rigorously because of the possibility for multiple interactions between particles and the cell surface, relative changes in binding have

Abstract:

Retinoid X receptors (RXRs) are promiscuous partners of heterodimeric associations with other members of the Nuclear Receptor (NR) superfamily. Through these liaisons RXR ligands (“rexinoids”) either transcriptionally activate on their own the “permissive” subclass of heterodimers (PPAR/RXR, LXR/RXR, FXR/RXR) or synergize with partner ligands in the “non-permissive” subclass of heterodimers (RAR/RXR, VDR/RXR and TR/RXR). The nature and extent of the interaction of the ligand-receptor complexes with co-regulators, which is cell and context-dependent, results ultimately in transcriptional modula

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Two competing models for fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptor (FGFR) dimerization have recently emerged based on ternary FGF-FGFR-heparin crystal structures. In the symmetric two-end model, heparin promotes dimerization of two FGF-FGFR complexes by stabilizing bivalent interactions of the ligand and receptor through primary and secondary sites and by stabilizing direct receptor-receptor contacts. In the asymmetric model, there are no protein-protein contacts between the two FGF-FGFR complexes, which are bridged solely by heparin. To identify the correct mode of FGFR dimerization, w

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Transmembrane chemoreceptors are central components in bacterial chemotaxis. Receptors couple ligand binding and adaptational modification to receptor conformation in processes that create transmembrane signaling. Homodimers, the fundamental receptor structural units, associate in trimers and localize in patches of thousands. To what degree do conformational coupling and transmembrane signaling require higher-order interactions among dimers? To what degree are they altered by such interactions? To what degree are they inherent features of homodimers? We addressed these questions using

Abstract:

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) consists of 36 amino acids and is one of the most abundant peptides in the peripheral and central nervous system. Several subtype•s of NPY receptors have been described (Y1• Y6) using segments and analogues of NPY. The Y 1-, Y2- and the Y5-receptor, which have been cloned, belong to the G-protein coupled hormone receptor family and will be specially addressed, because they are the endogenous binding sites of neuropeptide Y in human. In contrast, Y4-receptors recognize endogenous PP, Y3"receptors are discussed controversially and the y6-receptor is truncated in human. In th

The alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) receptor of B16 mouse melanoma cells was characterized by photoaffinity labelling using radiolabelled photoactive derivatives of alpha-MSH. A doublet band of 43-46 kDa representing a ligand-receptor complex was identified. A novel adaptation of the streptovadin/biotin-based affinity system was used to isolate the alpha-MSH receptor. A probe was synthesized which contained biotin connected to a photolabelled alpha-MSH analogue via a cleavable disulphide linker and which displayed high affinity for the alpha-MSH receptor.
