Oligomeric structure of the MALT1 tandem Ig-like domains.


ABSTRACT: Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue 1 (MALT1) plays an important role in the adaptive immune program. During TCR- or BCR-induced NF-?B activation, MALT1 serves to mediate the activation of the IKK (I?B kinase) complex, which subsequently regulates the activation of NF-?B. Aggregation of MALT1 is important for E3 ligase activation and NF-?B signaling.Unlike the isolated CARD or paracaspase domains, which behave as monomers, the tandem Ig-like domains of MALT1 exists as a mixture of dimer and tetramer in solution. High-resolution structures reveals a protein-protein interface that is stabilized by a buried surface area of 1256 Å(2) and contains numerous hydrogen and salt bonds. In conjunction with a second interface, these interactions may represent the basis of MALT1 oligomerization.The crystal structure of the tandem Ig-like domains reveals the oligomerization potential of MALT1 and a potential intermediate in the activation of the adaptive inflammatory pathway.This article can also be viewed as an enhanced version in which the text of the article is integrated with interactive 3D representations and animated transitions.

<h4>Background</h4>Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue 1 (MALT1) plays an important role in the adaptive immune program. During TCR- or BCR-induced NF-κB activation, MALT1 serves to mediate the activation of the IKK (IκB kinase) complex, which subsequently regulates the activation of NF-κB. Aggregation of MALT1 is important for E3 ligase activation and NF-κB signaling.<h4>Principal findings</h4>Unlike the isolated CARD or paracaspase domains, which behave as monomers, the tandem Ig-like domains of  ...[more]
