Topic: CXCR4


In the News (Sat 26 Dec 09)

  
  Identification of CXCR4 domains that support coreceptor and chemokine receptor functions.
Using CXCR4 chimeras and mutants, we determined that SDF-1 requires the CXCR4 amino terminus for binding and activates downstream signaling pathways by interacting with the second extracellular loop of CXCR4.
SDF-1-mediated activation of CXCR4 required the Asp-Arg-Tyr motif in the second intracellular loop of CXCR4, was pertussis toxin sensitive, and did not require the distal C-terminal tail of CXCR4.
Several CXCR4 mutants that were not capable of binding SDF-1 or signaling still supported HIV-1 infection, indicating that the ability of CXCR4 to function as a coreceptor is independent of its ability to signal.

 CXCR4
CXCR4 is a G-protein-coupled, 7-transmembrane domain receptor whose physiological ligand is the Stromal Cell-Derived Factor-1 (SDF-1) chemokine (2, 13).
CXCR4 expression is induced by phytohemagglutinin (PHA) stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) (3).
X4 strains differ significantly in their use of CXCR4 extracellular domains (4,12); for example: HIV-1(NDK) and HIV-2(ROD) are unable to use CXCR-4 in which most of the amino-terminal domain is deleted, while HIV-1(LAI) is able to use the truncated receptor (4).
