Abstract:
Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) is a unique minimal integrin-binding sequence that is found within several glycoprotein ligands. This sequence has also been found in snake-venom anti-platelet proteins, including the disintegrins and dendroaspin, a natural variant of short-chain neurotoxins isolated from the venom of Dendroaspis jamesonii. In the present study, the motifs RYD and RCD were introduced into the dendroaspin scaffold to replace RGD. Both motifs in dendroaspin caused inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation with IC50 values of 200 and 300nM respectively, similar to that of the wild-type RGD

ABSTRACT Adenovirus (Ad) vectors are widely used for gene delivery in vitro and in vivo. A solid understanding of the biology of this virus is imperative for the development of novel, effective, and safe vectors. For the group C adenovirus serotypes 2 and 5 that use CAR as a primary attachment receptor, it is known that the penton base RGD motifs interact with cellular integrins and that this interaction promotes virus internalization. However, the RGD motif's impact on the efficiency of postinternalization steps, such as the escape of the virus particle from the endosome, is less defined. Fur

ABSTRACT The human parechovirus 1 RGD motif in VP1 was studied by mutagenesis. An RGD-to-RGE change gave only revertant viruses with a restored RGD, while deletion of GD was lethal and nonrevertable. Mutations at the +1 and +2 positions had some effect on growth properties and a +1 M-to-P change was lethal. These studies indicate that the RGD motif plays a critical role in infectivity, presumably by interacting with integrins, and that downstream amino acids can have an influence on function.

Abstract:
The integrins αvβ1, αvβ5, αvβ6 and αvβ8 have all recently been shown to interact with the RGD motif of the latency-associated peptide (LAPβ1) of transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1), with binding to αvβ6 and αvβ8 leading to TGFβ1 activation. Previously it has been suggested that the remaining αv integrin, αvβ3, does not interact with LAPβ1. However, here we show clearly that αvβ3 does indeed interact with the LAPβ1 RGD motif. This interaction is similar to other αvβ3 ligands in terms of the cations required for adhesion, the concentrations of LAPβ1 required for binding and the ability of a sm

ABSTRACT The primary receptor, the coxsackievirus and adenovirus receptor (CAR), and the secondary receptor, αv integrins, are the tropism determinants of adenovirus (Ad) type 5. Inhibition of the interaction of both the fiber with CAR and the penton base with the αv integrin appears to be crucial to the development of targeted Ad vectors, which specifically transduce a given cell population. In this study, we developed Ad vectors with ablation of both CAR and αv integrin binding by mutating the fiber knob and the RGD motif of the penton base. We also replaced the fiber shaft domain with that

ABSTRACT Vectors based on the chicken embryo lethal orphan (CELO) avian adenovirus (Ad) have two attractive properties for gene transfer applications: resistance to preformed immune responses to human Ads and the ability to grow in chicken embryos, allowing low-cost production of recombinant viruses. However, a major limitation of this technology is that CELO vectors demonstrate decreased efficiency of gene transfer into cells expressing low levels of the coxsackie-Ad receptor (CAR). In order to improve the efficacy of gene transfer into CAR-deficient cells, we modified viral tropism via genet

Integrin αvβ3 interacting with the short Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif plays a critical role in the progression of several types of tumors. However, the effects of the RGD structure (cyclic or linear) with integrin αvβ3 at the atomic level remain poorly understood. Here, we performed association and dissociation dynamic simulations for integrin αvβ3 in complex with a linear or cyclic pentapeptide by steered molecular dynamics simulations. Compared with cyclic RGD, the linear RGD peptide triggers instability of the configurational changes, mainly resting with the RGD domain due to its flexibility. Th

In this study, a novel method to genetically alter the Ad fiber tropism is described. The knob and the last 15 shaft repeats of the fiber gene were deleted and replaced with an external trimerization motif and a new cell-binding ligand, in this case the integrin-binding motif RGD. The corresponding recombinant fiber retained the basic biological functions of the natural fiber, i.e., trimerization, nuclear import, penton formation, and ligand bindin

In this study, we have identified αvβ3 and Fas as the SPE B receptors for this function.

Although the ligand specificity of α3β1 has been controversial, current literature indicates that α3β1 ligand recognition is independent of RGD.
