'''Crystal structure of the IL-15/IL-15Ra complex'''<br />


==Overview==
==Crystal structure of the IL-15/IL-15Ra complex==
Interleukin 15 (IL-15) and IL-2, which promote the survival of memory, CD8(+) T cells and regulatory T cells, respectively, bind receptor, complexes that share beta- and gamma-signaling subunits. Receptor, specificity is provided by unique, nonsignaling alpha-subunits. Whereas, IL-2 receptor-alpha (IL-2Ralpha) is expressed together in cis with the, beta- and gamma-subunits on T cells and B cells, IL-15Ralpha is expressed, in trans on antigen-presenting cells. Here we present a 1.85-A crystal, structure of the human IL-15-IL-15Ralpha complex. The structure provides, insight into the molecular basis of the specificity of cytokine, recognition and emphasizes the importance of water in generating this very, high-affinity complex. Despite very low IL-15-IL-2 sequence homology and, distinct receptor architecture, the topologies of the IL-15-IL-15Ralpha, and IL-2-IL-2Ralpha complexes are very similar. Our data raise the, possibility that IL-2, like IL-15, might be capable of being presented in, trans in the context of its unique receptor alpha-chain.

== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/IL15_HUMAN IL15_HUMAN] Cytokine that stimulates the proliferation of T-lymphocytes. Stimulation by IL-15 requires interaction of IL-15 with components of IL-2R, including IL-2R beta and probably IL-2R gamma but not IL-2R alpha.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Interleukin 15 (IL-15) and IL-2, which promote the survival of memory CD8(+) T cells and regulatory T cells, respectively, bind receptor complexes that share beta- and gamma-signaling subunits. Receptor specificity is provided by unique, nonsignaling alpha-subunits. Whereas IL-2 receptor-alpha (IL-2Ralpha) is expressed together in cis with the beta- and gamma-subunits on T cells and B cells, IL-15Ralpha is expressed in trans on antigen-presenting cells. Here we present a 1.85-A crystal structure of the human IL-15-IL-15Ralpha complex. The structure provides insight into the molecular basis of the specificity of cytokine recognition and emphasizes the importance of water in generating this very high-affinity complex. Despite very low IL-15-IL-2 sequence homology and distinct receptor architecture, the topologies of the IL-15-IL-15Ralpha and IL-2-IL-2Ralpha complexes are very similar. Our data raise the possibility that IL-2, like IL-15, might be capable of being presented in trans in the context of its unique receptor alpha-chain.
