Crystal Structure of the Human GCSF-Receptor Signaling Complex
OverviewOverview
A crystal structure of the signaling complex between human granulocyte, colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) and a ligand binding region of GCSF, receptor (GCSF-R), has been determined to 2.8 A resolution. The, GCSF:GCSF-R complex formed a 2:2 stoichiometry by means of a cross-over, interaction between the Ig-like domains of GCSF-R and GCSF. The, conformation of the complex is quite different from that between human, GCSF and the cytokine receptor homologous domain of mouse GCSF-R, but, similar to that of the IL-6/gp130 signaling complex. The Ig-like domain, cross-over structure necessary for GCSF-R activation is consistent with, previously reported thermodynamic and mutational analyses.
