Superantigens cross-link major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II and T-cell receptor (TCR) molecules, resulting in an overstimulation of T-cells associated with a massive release of pyrogenic and inflammatory cytokines (PubMed:9253413, PubMed:11163233).<ref>PMID:11163233</ref> <ref>PMID:1500157</ref> <ref>PMID:1987034</ref> <ref>PMID:9253413</ref> | ||

| - | Bacterial superantigens are small proteins that have a very potent stimulatory effect on T lymphocytes through their ability to bind to both MHC class II molecules and T-cell receptors. We have determined the three-dimensional structure of a Streptococcal superantigen, SPE-C, at 2.4 A resolution. The structure shows that SPE-C has the usual superantigen fold, but that the surface that forms a generic, low-affinity MHC-binding site in other superantigens is here used to create a SPE-C dimer. Instead, MHC class II binding occurs through a zinc binding site that is analogous to a similar site in staphylococcal enterotoxin A. Consideration of the SPE-C dimer suggests a novel mechanism for promotion of MHC aggregation and T-cell activation. | ||
