Structure of the ligand binding domain of the Retinoic Acid Receptor beta

Contents

Overview

The crystal structure of the ligand-binding domain of RARbeta, a suspect, tumour suppressor, reveals important features that distinguish it from the, two other RAR isotypes. The most striking difference is an extra cavity, allowing RARbeta to bind more bulky agonists. Accordingly, we identified a, ligand that shows RARbeta selectivity with a 100-fold higher affinity to, RARbeta than to alpha or gamma isotypes. The structural differences, between the three RAR ligand-binding pockets revealed a rationale, explaining how a single retinoid can be at the same time an RARalpha, gamma antagonist and an RARbeta agonist. In addition, we demonstrate how, to generate an RARbeta antagonist by gradually modifying the bulkiness of, a single substitution. Together, our results provide structural guidelines, for the synthesis of RARbeta-selective agonists and antagonists, allowing, for the first time to address pharmacologically the tumour suppressor role, of RARbeta in vitro and in animal models.
