Method: Solution NMR Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Disease TCAM1_HUMAN Herpetic encephalitis. Herpes simplex encephalitis 4 (HSE4) [MIM:614850: A rare complication of human herpesvirus 1 (HHV-1) infection, occurring in only a small minority of HHV-1 infected individuals. HSE is characterized by hemorrhagic necrosis of parts of the temporal and frontal lobes. Onset is over several days and involves fever, headache, seizures, stupor, and often coma, frequently with a fatal outcome. Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Function TCAM1_HUMAN Involved in innate immunity against invading pathogens. Adapter used by TLR3 and TLR4 (through TICAM2) to mediate NF-kappa-B and interferon-regulatory factor (IRF) activation, and to induce apoptosis. Ligand binding to these receptors results in TRIF recruitment through its TIR domain. Distinct protein-interaction motifs allow recruitment of the effector proteins TBK1, TRAF6 and RIPK1, which in turn, lead to the activation of transcription factors IRF3 and IRF7, NF-kappa-B and FADD respectively. Publication Abstract from PubMed Homotypic and heterotypic interactions between Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domains in Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and downstream adaptors are essential to evoke innate immune responses. However, such oligomerization properties present intrinsic difficulties in structural studies of TIR domains. Here, using BB-loop mutations that disrupt homotypic interactions, we determined the structures of the monomeric TIR domain-containing adaptor molecule (TICAM)-1 and TICAM-2 TIR domains. Docking of the monomeric structures, together with yeast two hybrid-based mutagenesis assays, reveals that the homotypic interaction between TICAM-2 TIR is indispensable to present a scaffold for recruiting the monomeric moiety of the TICAM-1 TIR dimer. This result proposes a unique idea that oligomerization of upstream TIR domains is crucial for binding of downstream TIR domains. Furthermore, the bivalent nature of each TIR domain dimer can generate a large signaling complex under the activated TLRs, which would recruit downstream signaling molecules efficiently. This model is consistent with previous reports that BB-loop mutants completely abrogate downstream signaling.
