Ligands: Gene: ITGA2B, GP2B, ITGAB (HUMAN), ITGB3, GP3A (HUMAN) Experimental data: Check Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Disease [ITA2B_HUMAN] Defects in ITGA2B are a cause of Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) [MIM:273800]; also known as thrombasthenia of Glanzmann and Naegeli. GT is the most common inherited disease of platelets. It is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by mucocutaneous bleeding of mild-to-moderate severity and the inability of this integrin to recognize macromolecular or synthetic peptide ligands. GT has been classified clinically into types I and II. In type I, platelets show absence of the glycoprotein IIb/beta-3 complexes at their surface and lack fibrinogen and clot retraction capability. In type II, the platelets express the glycoprotein IIb/beta-3 complex at reduced levels (5-20% controls), have detectable amounts of fibrinogen, and have low or moderate clot retraction capability. The platelets of GT 'variants' have normal or near normal (60-100%) expression of dysfunctional receptors.

Function [ITA2B_HUMAN] Integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 is a receptor for fibronectin, fibrinogen, plasminogen, prothrombin, thrombospondin and vitronectin. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in a wide array of ligands. It recognizes the sequence H-H-L-G-G-G-A-K-Q-A-G-D-V in fibrinogen gamma chain. Following activation integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 brings about platelet/platelet interaction through binding of soluble fibrinogen. This step leads to rapid platelet aggregation which physically plugs ruptured endothelial cell surface. [ITB3_HUMAN] Integrin alpha-V/beta-3 is a receptor for cytotactin, fibronectin, laminin, matrix metalloproteinase-2, osteopontin, osteomodulin, prothrombin, thrombospondin, vitronectin and von Willebrand factor. Integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 is a receptor for fibronectin, fibrinogen, plasminogen, prothrombin, thrombospondin and vitronectin. Integrins alpha-IIb/beta-3 and alpha-V/beta-3 recognize the sequence R-G-D in a wide array of ligands. Integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 recognizes the sequence H-H-L-G-G-G-A-K-Q-A-G-D-V in fibrinogen gamma chain. Following activation integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 brings about platelet/platelet interaction through binding of soluble fibrinogen. This step leads to rapid platelet aggregation which physically plugs ruptured endothelial surface.

Publication Abstract from PubMed OBJECTIVE: The alphaIIbbeta3 antagonist antiplatelet drug abciximab is the chimeric antigen-binding fragment comprising the variable regions of murine monoclonal antibody 7E3 and the constant domains of human IgG1 and light chain kappa. Previous mutagenesis studies suggested that abciximab binds to the beta3 C177-C184 specificity-determining loop (SDL) and Trp129 on the adjacent beta1-alpha1 helix. These studies could not, however, assess whether 7E3 or abciximab prevents fibrinogen binding by steric interference, disruption of either the alphaIIbbeta3-binding pocket for fibrinogen or the beta3 SDL (which is not part of the binding pocket but affects fibrinogen binding), or some combination of these effects. To address this gap, we used cryo-electron microscopy to determine the structure of the alphaIIbbeta3-abciximab complex at 2.8 A resolution. Approach and Results: The interacting surface of abciximab is comprised of residues from all 3 complementarity-determining regions of both the light and heavy chains, with high representation of aromatic residues. Binding is primarily to the beta3 SDL and neighboring residues, the beta1-alpha1 helix, and beta3 residues Ser211, Val212 and Met335. Unexpectedly, the structure also indicated several interactions with alphaIIb. As judged by the cryo-electron microscopy model, molecular-dynamics simulations, and mutagenesis, the binding of abciximab does not appear to rely on the interaction with the alphaIIb residues and does not result in disruption of the fibrinogen-binding pocket; it does, however, compress and reduce the flexibility of the SDL. CONCLUSIONS: We deduce that abciximab prevents ligand binding by steric interference, with a potential contribution via displacement of the SDL and limitation of the flexibility of the SDL residues.
