Abstract
|
 |
|
H2-M3 is a class Ib MHC molecule of the mouse with a 10(4)-fold preference for
binding N-formylated peptides. To elucidate the basis of this unusual
specificity, we expressed and crystallized a soluble form of M3 with a
formylated nonamer peptide, fMYFINILTL, and determined the structure by X-ray
crystallography. M3, refined at 2.1 A resolution, resembles class la MHC
molecules in its overall structure, but differs in the peptide-binding groove.
The A pocket, which usually accommodates the free N-terminus of a bound peptide,
is closed, and the peptide is shifted one residue, such that the P1 side chain
is lodged in the B pocket. The formyl group is coordinated by His-9 and a bound
water on the floor of the groove.
