Abstract
Nogo receptor (NgR)-mediated control of axon growth relies on the central nervous system-specific type I transmembrane protein Lingo-1. Interactions between Lingo-1 and NgR, along with a complementary co-receptor, result in neurite and axonal collapse. In addition, the inhibitory role of Lingo-1 is particularly important in regulation of oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelination, suggesting that pharmacological modulation of Lingo-1 function could be a novel approach for nerve repair and remyelination therapies. Here we report on the crystal structure of the ligand-binding ectodomain of human Lingo-1 and show it has a bimodular, kinked structure composed of leucine-rich repeat (LRR) and immunoglobulin (Ig)-like modules. The structure, together with biophysical analysis of its solution properties, reveals that in the crystals and in solution Lingo-1 persistently associates with itself to form a stable tetramer and that it is its LRR-Ig-composite fold that drives such assembly. Specifically, in the crystal structure protomers of Lingo-1 associate in a ring-shaped tetramer, with each LRR domain filling an open cleft in an adjacent protomer. The tetramer buries a large surface area (9,200 A2) and may serve as an efficient scaffold to simultaneously bind and assemble the NgR complex components during activation on a membrane. Potential functional binding sites that can be identified on the ectodomain surface, including the site of self-recognition, suggest a model for protein assembly on the membrane.
Figure 4.
Glycosylation of Lingo-1, front view. The molecular surface of Lingo-1 is shown, colored according to electrostatic potential (red for negative, and blue for positive charges), with the surfaces represented in yellow for carbohydrate. The seven N-linked sugars are labeled. The back side of the molecule (not shown) is carbohydrate-free. The view on the left is tilted to highlight the position of the two N-glycans on the front concave LRR face. Hydrogen bonding is depicted with dashed white lines.
Figure 5.
Structure of the Lingo-1 tetramer. A, view of the top and front surfaces of the Lingo-1 tetramer, rendered in red, green, magenta, and yellow. The two views are related by a 90° rotation about the horizontal axis. Carbohydrate are shown as yellow sticks. The LRR modules interlock the ring head-to-tail, back-to-back, with the IgI1s extend vertically. The bottom view illustrates the putative orientation of the tetramer relative to a cell surface. B, detailed view of molecular interfaces. The imprint of bound LRR (red ribbons) on the molecular surface of a neighboring monomer is colored blue. The top and bottom insets are close-up views of some of the interactions at the LRR-LRR′ and IgI1-LRR′ interfaces, respectively; the prime symbols denote the partner molecule. Molecular surfaces for the two interacting monomers are colored as in A, green and red. Side chains of interacting residues are shown as a ball-and-stick model, and hydrogen bonds are shown with dashed white lines. All interface residues are conserved apart from Ala^461 (Ser in chicken, see also Fig. 7A).
