  ABSTRACT  
 
Human interleukin-12 (IL-12, p70) is an early pro-inflammatory cytokine, comprising two disulfide-linked subunits, p35 and p40. We solved the crystal structures of monomeric human p40 at 2.5 A and the human p70 complex at 2.8 A resolution, which reveals that IL-12 is similar to class 1 cytokine-receptor complexes. They also include the first description of an N-terminal immunoglobulin-like domain, found on the p40 subunit. Several charged residues from p35 and p40 intercalate to form a unique interlocking topography, shown by mutagenesis to be critical for p70 formation. A central arginine residue from p35 projects into a deep pocket on p40, which may be an ideal target for a small molecule antagonist of IL-12 formation.
 
  Selected figure(s)  
 
Figure 1.
Figure 1 p40 resembles a soluble class 1 cytokine -receptor. N- and C-termini are labeled N and C, respectively, and the three domains are labeled D1, D2 and D3. The intrachain disulfide bonds (yellow), an N-linked sugar modification (red) and the WSXWS motif (magenta) are shown. The p40 loops that contact p35 (turquoise) are located at the apex between D2 and D3. Flexible loop regions are indicated by dotted lines. This and all subsequent figures (except Figures 3 and 7) were made using MOLSCRIPT (Kraulis, 1991) and Raster3D (Merritt and Bacon, 1997). 		Figure 4.
Figure 4 Important charged interactions in the p35–p40 binding interface. (A) R189 (yellow) from p35 helix D projects into a deep, hydrophobic pocket composed of p40 loops 1, 5, 6 (thick) and 3 (thin). A buried hydrogen bonding network (dashes) connects R189 with D290 from p40 through a bound water (red sphere). (B) E181 in p40 is part of a second important charged interaction. Dashed lines indicate hydrogen bonding of p40 E181 with p35 residues R183 and T186. R183 is further stabilized by electrostatic interactions with p35 D108 in helix B.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB code is shown on the right.
