Abstract
The laminin G-like (LG) domains of laminin-111, a glycoprotein widely expressed during embryogenesis, provide cell anchoring and receptor binding sites that are involved in basement membrane assembly and cell signaling. We now report the crystal structure of the laminin alpha1LG4-5 domains and provide a mutational analysis of heparin, alpha-dystroglycan, and galactosylsulfatide binding. The two domains of alpha1LG4-5 are arranged in a V-shaped fashion similar to that observed with laminin alpha2 LG4-5 but with a substantially different interdomain angle. Recombinant alpha1LG4-5 binding to heparin, alpha-dystroglycan, and sulfatides was dependent upon both shared and unique contributions from basic residues distributed in several clusters on the surface of LG4. For heparin, the greatest contribution was detected from two clusters, 2719RKR and 2791KRK. Binding to alpha-dystroglycan was particularly dependent on basic residues within 2719RKR, 2831RAR, and 2858KDR. Binding to galactosylsulfatide was most affected by mutations in 2831RAR and 2766KGRTK but not in 2719RKR. The combined analysis of structure and activities reveal differences in LG domain interactions that should enable dissection of biological roles of different laminin ligands.

FIGURE 1. Structure of laminin 1LG4-5. A, superposition of the two 1LG4-5 molecules in the asymmetric unit. Molecules A (mol A; light brown) and B (mol B; blue) were superimposed on their LG4 domains. The position of Tyr^2871 (see"Results") is indicated. B, schematic diagram of molecule B (cyan, LG4; green, LG5). The N and C termini are labeled. Disulfide bonds are shown as yellow ball-and-stick models. Metal ions are shown as purple spheres. The positions of Asn^2714 and Asn^2811 (N-linked glycosylation sites) and Cys^3014 (unpaired cysteine) are indicated. The third glycosylation site at Asn^2900 is located at the back of LG5.

FIGURE 2. Comparison of 1LG4-5 and 2LG4-5. A, sequence alignment of 1LG4-5 and 2LG4-5. Identical residues are shaded yellow, cysteines are shaded black, and metal ion ligands are shaded purple. The sequence numbering and -strands of mouse 1LG4-5 are indicated above the alignment, and the sequence numbering of mouse 2LG4-5 is indicated below the alignment. Residues implicated in receptor binding to 1LG4-5 (this work) and 2LG4-5 (13) are indicated in red. B, superposition of 1LG4 (this work) and 2LG4 (8). A total of 148 C atoms were superimposed with a root mean square deviation of 0.91 Å. C, superposition of 1LG5 (this work) and 2LG5 (8). A total of 153 C atoms were superimposed with a root mean square deviation of 0.59 Å.

Full text Abstract
Figure 2.
Figure 2 (A) The LG4–LG5 interface. The colour scheme is the same as in Figure 1. Residues involved in inter-domain contacts are shown as ball-and-stick models and are labelled. The most prominent contact is centred on Phe2931 (see the text). (B) Interactions between the N-terminal segment (in brown) and LG5 (in green). Dashed lines indicate hydrogen bonds. The electron density shown is a simulated annealing 2F[obs] - F[calc] omit map at 2.0 Å resolution (1.5 contouring), in which the N-terminal segment and Cys3017 in LG5 were excluded from the phasing model.

Figure 4 Calcium-binding sites in 2LG4–5. (A) Calcium 1 in LG4. The calcium ligands are shown as ball-and-stick models and are labelled. Calcium–ligand bonds are shown as black sticks. A metal-bound water molecule is shown in yellow. (B) Calcium 2 in LG5. The calcium coordination is similar to calcium 1, but Asp2861 from a packing-related molecule in the crystal (in yellow) occupies the fifth coordination site (see the text).
