Crystal structure of Staphylococcal Superantigen-Like protein 11
Overview
Staphylococcus aureus is a major pathogen that produces a family of 14, staphylococcal superantigen-like (SSL) proteins, which are structurally, similar to superantigens but do not stimulate T cells. SSL11 is one member, of the family that is found in all staphylococcal strains. Recombinant, SSL11 bound to granulocytes and monocytes through a sialic acid-dependent, mechanism and was rapidly internalized. SSL11 also bound to sialic, acid-containing glycoproteins, such as the Fc receptor for IgA (FcalphaRI), and P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1), and inhibited neutrophil, attachment to a P-selectin-coated surface. Biosensor analysis of two SSL11, alleles binding to sialyl Lewis X [sLe(x)-, Neu5Acalpha2-3Galbeta1-4(Fuc1-3)GlcNAc] coupled to bovine serum albumin, gave dissociation constants of 0.7 and 7 mum respectively. Binding of, SSL11 to a glycan array revealed specificity for glycans containing the, trisaccharide sialyllactosamine (sLacNac -, Neu5Acalpha2-3Galbeta1-4GlcNAc). A 1.6 A resolution crystal structure of, SSL11 complexed with sLe(x) revealed a discrete binding site in the, C-terminal beta-grasp domain, with predominant interactions with the, sialic acid and galactose residues. A single amino acid mutation in the, carbohydrate binding site abolished all SSL11 binding. Thus, SSL11 is a, staphylococcal protein that targets myeloid cells by binding, sialyllactosamine-containing glycoproteins.
