Abstract
Integrins are important adhesion receptors in all Metazoa that transmit conformational change bidirectionally across the membrane. Integrin alpha and beta subunits form a head and two long legs in the ectodomain and span the membrane. Here, we define with crystal structures the atomic basis for allosteric regulation of the conformation and affinity for ligand of the integrin ectodomain, and how fibrinogen-mimetic therapeutics bind to platelet integrin alpha(IIb)beta3. Allostery in the beta3 I domain alters three metal binding sites, associated loops and alpha1- and alpha7-helices. Piston-like displacement of the alpha7-helix causes a 62 degrees reorientation between the beta3 I and hybrid domains. Transmission through the rigidly connected plexin/semaphorin/integrin (PSI) domain in the upper beta3 leg causes a 70 A separation between the knees of the alpha and beta legs. Allostery in the head thus disrupts interaction between the legs in a previously described low-affinity bent integrin conformation, and leg extension positions the high-affinity head far above the cell surface.

Figure 1: Quaternary rearrangements in the integrin ectodomain. a -c, Three conformational states visualized in electron microscopy3,6 and in crystal structures (here and in ref. 7). d -j, Proposed intermediates in equilibration between known conformational states. The upper pathways may be stimulated by ligand binding outside the cell, and the lower pathways by signals within the cell that separate the and subunit transmembrane domains. Domains in a -j are shown in solid colour if known directly from crystal structures, dashed with grey if placed from crystal structures into electron microscopy image averages, and in solid grey for EGF-1 and EGF-2, which are modelled on EGF-3 and EGF-4.

C atoms of fibrinogen-binding sensitive residues are shown as spheres in the same colour as the domains in which they are present. The tirofiban-bound structure is shown. b -f, Binding of ligands or pseudoligands to [IIb] [3] (b -e) and binding of (f) cyclo Arg-Gly-Asp-D-Phe-N-methyl-Val (cyclo RGDfV) to [V] [3] (ref. 8). The orientation is identical to that in a. The and subunits are shown in magenta and cyan, respectively. Small molecules are shown as ball-and-stick models with their carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, sulphur and arsenic atoms coloured yellow, blue, red, green and grey, respectively. Hydrogen bonds are shown as dotted lines. Ca^2+ and Mg2+ ions are gold and silver spheres, respectively. The ligand and S123 coordinations to the MIDAS metal are shown as thin grey lines.
