High Affinity IgE Receptor (alpha chain) Complexed with Tight-Binding E131 'zeta' Peptide from Phage Display
Overview
Two structurally distinct classes of peptides were recently identified by phage display that bind the high-affinity IgE receptor, FcepsilonRI, and block IgE binding and subsequent receptor activation. Both classes adopt highly stable structures in solution, one forming a beta hairpin, with the other forming a helical "zeta" structure. Despite these differences, the two classes bind competitively to the same site on the receptor. Structural analyses of both peptide-receptor complexes by NMR spectroscopy and/or X-ray crystallography reveal that the unrelated peptide scaffolds have nevertheless converged to present a similar three-dimensional surface to interact with FcepsilonRI and that their modes of interaction share a key feature of the IgE-FcepsilonRI complex, the proline/tryptophan sandwich.
