In silico interaction of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 with insulin-like growth factor 1.

ABSTRACT: Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) is a vital protein exist in circulation which interacts with high affinity to insulin-like growth factor (IGFs) altering their activities. Therefore, the interaction between IGFs and IGFBP-3 has a key role altering large spectrum of activities such as cell cycle progression, proliferation and apoptosis. Despite decades of research, the crystal structure of IGFBP-3 has not been identified possibly due to some technical challenge in its crystallizing. The three-dimensional (3D) structure of IGFBP-3 was predicted using homology modeling, Phyre2, and molecular dynamic. Its interaction with IGF-1 was also identified by HADDOCK software. IGFBP-3 has the most identity with other IGFBPs in N and C-domain; however, its linker domain has lower identity. Our data predicted that IGF-1 structurally interacts with N-domain and linker domain of IGFBP-3. Some conserved residues of IGFBP-3 such as Glu33, Arg36, Gly39, Arg60, Arg66, Asn109, and Ile146 interacts with Glu3, Asp12, Phe16, Gly19, Asp20, Arg21, and Glu58 of IGF-1. In addition, our data predict that the linker domain has a loop structure which covers post translational modification and interacts with IGF-1. The phosphorylation of Ser111 in linker domain, which previously has been shown to induce apoptosis make a repulsive force interrupting this interaction to IGF-1, which enables IGFBP-3 to induce apoptosis. The present study suggests that the linker domain has a key role in recognition of IGFBP-3 with IGF-1.

Project description:To characterize predictors of insulin-like growth factor-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 in acute critical illness with the hypothesis that acute factors associated with critical illness will more strongly predict circulating insulin-like growth factor-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 than chronic clinical or genetic factors.Observational study nested within a large prospective study using multivariable linear regression to model circulating insulin-like growth factor-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 with acute and chronic clinical variables, and genotype from five polymorphisms in insulin-like growth factor pathway genes.ICUs from two large academic medical centers.Five hundred forty-three Caucasian patients with risk factors for acute respiratory distress syndrome and available plasma from early in critical illness.None.Total insulin-like growth factor-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 were measured in plasma using IMMULITE assays (Siemens, Malvern, PA). We examined age, gender, body mass index, cirrhosis, and diabetes, as well as Acute Physiology, Age, and Chronic Health Evaluation III score, acute hepatic dysfunction, pneumonia and aspiration, sepsis/septic shock, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and receipt of corticosteroids. Body mass index, cirrhosis, and acute respiratory distress syndrome were strongly associated with insulin-like growth factor-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 levels; Acute Physiology, Age, and Chronic Health Evaluation III was strongly associated with insulin-like growth factor-1 levels; and age was strongly associated with insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3. Five polymorphisms (IGF1: rs1520220, rs35767, rs2946834; IGFBP1: rs4619; IGFBP3: rs2854746) were analyzed for associations with plasma levels. When genotypes were added to models, rs2854746 was significantly associated with plasma insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3. Genotype explained an additional 2% of variability with an overall adjusted R-square of 0.18.Despite the acute derangements of critical illness, both acute and chronic health factors significantly influence circulating levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 early in critical illness. rs2854746 is also significantly associated with insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 levels in this ICU cohort. Overall, phenotypic and genotypic factors explained only a modest amount of variability in insulin-like growth factor-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3. Further research is needed to understand how to apply these findings to patient care.
