Abstract
Adenovirus fibers from most serotypes bind the D1 domain of coxsackie and adenovirus receptor (CAR), although the binding residues are not strictly conserved. To understand this further, we determined the crystal structures of canine adenovirus serotype 2 (CAV-2) and the human adenovirus serotype 37 (HAd37) in complex with human CAR D1 at 2.3 and 1.5A resolution, respectively. Structure comparison with the HAd12 fiber head-CAR D1 complex showed that the overall topology of the interaction is conserved but that the interfaces differ in number and identity of interacting residues, shape complementarity, and degree of conformational adaptation. Using surface plasmon resonance, we characterized the binding affinity to CAR D1 of wild type and mutant CAV-2 and HAd37 fiber heads. We found that CAV-2 has the highest affinity but fewest direct interactions, with the reverse being true for HAd37. Moreover, we found that conserved interactions can have a minor contribution, whereas serotype-specific interactions can be essential. These results are discussed in the light of virus evolution and design of adenovirus vectors for gene transfer.

FIGURE 2. Cartoon representations of adenovirus fiber heads in complex with CAR D1. HAd12, HAd37, and CAV-2 fiber heads are colored blue, pink, and yellow, respectively. CAR D1 is in green. A, top view of the structure of HAd12 fiber head in complex with CAR D1 (13). B, as A, but HAd37 fiber head. C, as A and B, but CAV-2 fiber head. D, part of the binding interface between HAd12 fiber head and CAR D1 showing some key interacting residues. E, equivalent region of interface between HAd37 fiber head and CAR D1 showing conservation of the interactions and additional unique interactions provided by HAd37 Glu^351 from the IJ loop. F, same region of the CAV-2 fiber head and CAR D1 interface showing equivalent interactions made by sometimes different fiber residues. Hydrogen bonds are shown in dotted lines. Residues marked with an asterisk are not fully represented for clarity.
