Abstract
IL-10 is a dimeric cytokine that must engage its high-affinity cell surface receptor, IL-10R1, to induce multiple cellular activities. Here we report the 1.9 A crystal structure of an engineered IL-10 monomer (IL-10M1) in complex with a neutralizing Fab fragment (9D7Fab). 9D7Fab and IL-10R1 bind distinct nonoverlapping surfaces on IL-10M1. Antagonism of the IL-10M1/IL-10R1 interaction is the result of 9D7Fab-induced conformational changes in the CD loop of IL-10M1 that indirectly alter the structure of the IL-10R1 binding site. A single mutation (Ile87Ala) in the same CD loop region of the Epstein-Barr virus IL-10 (ebvIL-10) also reduces IL-10R1 binding affinity, suggesting that ebvIL-10 and 9D7Fab use similar allosteric mechanisms to modulate IL-10R1 affinity and biological activity.

Full text Abstract
Figure 1.
Fig. 1. Design of an IL-10 monomer. A, schematic diagram of the IL-10 polypeptide. Each -helix in the chain is represented as a rectangle and labeled A-F from the N to C terminus. The amino acid sequence for the hinge region between helices D and E is shown for wtIL-10 and for IL-10M1. B, ribbon diagram of the intertwined wtIL-10 dimer (34). C, ribbon diagram of a single wtIL-10 chain or open monomer as described in Ref. 24. D, predicted structure of IL-10M1 showing the insertion of helices E and F into the cleft formed from helices A-D.
Figure 4.
Fig. 4. Thermal denaturation of IL-10M1 and wtIL-10. The ellipticity at 222 nm for IL-10M1 ( gray trace) and wtIL-10 (black trace) were monitored over the temperature range of 10-95 °C. The protein concentration for the experiment was 40 µg/ml in 20 mM phosphate buffer, pH 7.0.
