F17-AG LECTIN DOMAIN FROM ESCHERICHIA COLI IN COMPLEX WITH A SELENIUM CARBOHYDRATE DERIVATIVE
Overview
The F17-G adhesin at the tip of flexible F17 fimbriae of enterotoxigenic, Escherichia coli mediates binding to, N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosamine-presenting receptors on the microvilli of the, intestinal epithelium of ruminants. We report the 1.7 A resolution crystal, structure of the lectin domain of F17-G, both free and in complex with, N-acetylglucosamine. The monosaccharide is bound on the side of the, ellipsoid-shaped protein in a conserved site around which all natural, variations of F17-G are clustered. A model is proposed for the interaction, between F17-fimbriated E. coli and microvilli with enhanced affinity, compared with the binding constant we determined for F17-G binding to, N-acetylglucosamine (0.85 mM-1). Unexpectedly, the F17-G structure reveals, that the lectin domains of the F17-G, PapGII and FimH fimbrial adhesins, all share the immunoglobulin-like fold of the structural components, (pilins) of their fimbriae, despite lack of any sequence identity. Fold, comparisons with pilin and chaperone structures of the chaperone/usher, pathway highlight the central role of the C-terminal beta-strand G of the, immunoglobulin-like fold and provides new insights into pilus assembly, function and adhesion.
