Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic, inflammatory and often febrile multisystemic disorder of connective tissue. It affects principally the skin, joints, kidneys and serosal membranes. It is thought to represent a failure of the regulatory mechanisms of the autoimmune system. Function ITAM_HUMAN Integrin alpha-M/beta-2 is implicated in various adhesive interactions of monocytes, macrophages and granulocytes as well as in mediating the uptake of complement-coated particles. It is identical with CR-3, the receptor for the iC3b fragment of the third complement component. It probably recognizes the R-G-D peptide in C3b. Integrin alpha-M/beta-2 is also a receptor for fibrinogen, factor X and ICAM1. It recognizes P1 and P2 peptides of fibrinogen gamma chain. Publication Abstract from PubMed Integrins are ubiquitous cell-surface heterodimers that are exploited by pathogens and toxins, including leukotoxins that target beta(2) integrins on phagocytes. The Bordetella adenylate cyclase toxin (ACT) uses the alpha(M)beta(2) integrin as a receptor, but the structural basis for integrin binding and neutralization by antibodies is poorly understood. Here, we use cryoelectron microscopy to determine a 2.7 A resolution structure of an ACT fragment bound to alpha(M)beta(2). This structure reveals that ACT interacts with the headpiece and calf-2 of the alpha(M) subunit in a non-canonical manner specific to bent, inactive alpha(M)beta(2). Neutralizing antibody epitopes map to ACT residues involved in alpha(M) binding, providing the basis for antibody-mediated attachment inhibition. Furthermore, binding to alpha(M)beta(2) positions the essential ACT acylation sites, which are conserved among toxins exported by type I secretion systems, at the cell membrane. These findings reveal a structural mechanism for integrin-mediated attachment and explain antibody-mediated neutralization of ACT intoxication.
