Abstract
The binding of cytoplasmic proteins, such as talin, to the cytoplasmic domains of integrin adhesion receptors mediates bidirectional signal transduction. Here we report the crystal structure of the principal integrin binding and activating fragment of talin, alone and in complex with fragments of the beta 3 integrin tail. The FERM (four point one, ezrin, radixin, and moesin) domain of talin engages integrins via a novel variant of the canonical phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain-NPxY ligand interaction that may be a prototype for FERM domain recognition of transmembrane receptors. In combination with NMR and mutational analysis, our studies reveal the critical interacting elements of both talin and the integrin beta 3 tail, providing structural paradigms for integrin linkage to the cell interior.
Figure 3.
Figure 3. Comparison of FERM F3 and PTB Domain InteractionsStereo Cα plot comparing the F3 subdomain of talin and the integrin sequence (red), the F3 subdomain of moesin and the β strand of the C-terminal tail (green), and the PTB domain of X11 with the β-APP bound (blue). The structures were superposed by aligning the Cα atoms of 39 residues in the β sandwich. The ligands are shown as thick lines. The tyrosine sidechains of the NPxY motifs of integrin and β-APP are also shown. For clarity, insertions in the X11 structure absent in FERM domains are not shown. Residue numbering is for talin.

Figure 4. Structure-Based Mutagenesis of the TalinAt left, binding of talin mutants to full-length β3 tail. Recombinant F2+F3 containing the indicated mutation was incubated with the integrin β3 cytoplasmic domain model protein; following washing, the bound protein was detected by SDS-PAGE. Note the absence of binding to β3(Y747A) and αIIb cytoplasmic domain model proteins and the equal loading (rightmost column) of each mutant. The bottom row depicts the equal loading of each model tail protein as judged by SDS-PAGE. At right, residues mutated in this study are mapped onto the surface of the talin F3 domain, with hydrophobic residues colored yellow. The K357A mutation (green) does not affect binding, while alanine substitution of R358, W359, and I396 (red) reduce binding.
