  ABSTRACT  
 
Human complement receptor type 2 (CD21) is the cellular receptor for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), a human tumor virus. The N-terminal two short consensus repeats (SCR1-SCR2) of the receptor interact with the EBV glycoprotein gp350/220 and also with the natural CD21 ligand C3d. Here we present the crystal structure of the CD21 SCR1-SCR2 fragment in the absence of ligand and demonstrate that it is able to bind EBV. Based on a functional analysis of wild-type and mutant CD21 and molecular modeling, we identify a likely region for EBV attachment and demonstrate that this region is not involved in the interaction with C3d. A comparison with the previously determined structure of CD21 SCR1-SCR2 in complex with C3d shows that, in both cases, CD21 assumes compact V-shaped conformations. However, our analysis reveals a surprising degree of flexibility at the SCR1-SCR2 interface, suggesting interactions between the two domains are not specific. We present evidence that the V-shaped conformation is induced by deglycosylation of the protein, and that physiologic glycosylation of CD21 would result in a more extended conformation, perhaps with additional epitopes for C3d binding.

Figure 2.
Fig 2. Structure and conformation of CD21 SCR1-SCR2. (A) Ribbon drawing of the crystallized protein, with -strands labeled. Disulfide bonds and NAG residues are shown in yellow and orange, respectively. (B) Interface between domains SCR1 and SCR2. Amino acids (single-letter code) that participate in the contact are shown in green. Hydrogen bonds and salt bridges are represented with dashed lines. A comparison with the structure of liganded CD21 SCR1-SCR2 (gray) (17) reveals substantial interdomain flexibility despite extensive interface contacts. (C) Final 2 F[obs] - F[calc] electron density map at 1.8-Å resolution, contoured at 0.7 , and centered at NAG107.
Figure 4.
Fig 4. Changes in CD21 structure upon interaction with its ligand C3d. (A) Superposition of nonliganded CD21 SCR1-SCR2 (orange) with the CD21 SCR1-SCR2-C3d complex (gray) (17). Binding of C3d introduces a main-chain shift in the B-B' loop of SCR2, displacing Ser-85 and unlocking the Arg-83 side chain. The interaction primarily involves the base of C3d helix H5. The C3d/CD21 interface contains a nonphysiologic zinc ion (cyan), which may distort the interaction between CD21 and C3d somewhat because the zinc-coordinating C3d residue Glu-117 might otherwise be available to form a salt bridge with Arg-83 or interact with other CD21 residues. W denotes water molecules. (B) Differences in interdomain orientation between the unliganded (orange) and liganded (gray) forms of CD21. The view is the same as in A; the tracing for C3d has been omitted for clarity. The small changes at the C3d binding site lead to a different interdomain orientation. Hydrogen bonds are indicated with dashed lines. Arrows indicate the directions of main-chain movements.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB code is shown on the right.
