P140: Understanding the IFNÂ-IFNAR1 interface: implications for drug discovery in IFNÂ-DRIVEN disease [Poster Abstract]
Cytokine(2016)
摘要
We have previously shown that IFN-b can bind
directly to IFNAR1, in the absence of IFNAR2, and can transmit a
signal that contributes to lethality in a mouse model of sepsis1
. In
this previous study we also determined the crystal structure of IFN-b
bound to the extracellular domain (ECD) of IFNAR1, showing unique
interaction interfaces not previously defined for other IFN-receptor
complexes and enabling us to hypothesise a molecular basis for the
higher binding affinity of IFN-b for IFNAR1 compared to other IFNs1
.
In light of the structural and functional insights we have into
this unique signaling complex, herein we sought to investigate the
molecular determinants that influenced stability of the
IFN-b/IFNAR1 complex and contributed to IFN-b driven signaling in
an effort to inform drug discovery to antagonize this ligand-receptor
interaction.
