FIG. 4. Ligand binding sites of leukocyte receptor complex immunoreceptors. A, the structure of KIR2DL2 (Protein Data Bank entry 1efx [PDB] ) with residues contacting HLA-Cw3 displayed as ball-and-stick models in gray (41). B, ILT2 (1g0x [PDB] ) with residues implicated in binding to UL18 (37, 51). C, Fc RI (10W0) with residues contacting Fc displayed. D, the structure of NKp46 with putative ligand binding residues displayed. Residues in red correspond to the KIR binding site; those in aqua and green correspond to the Fc RI and ILT2 binding sites, respectively. The location of the potentially glycosylated residue Thr104 is shown.
