Crystal structure of tracheal cytotoxin (TCT) bound to the ectodomain complex of peptidoglycan recognition proteins LCa (PGRP-LCa) and LCx (PGRP-LCx)

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 16556841

Function

[PGPLC_DROME] Major activator of the imd/Relish pathway and is likely to encode a pattern recognition molecule for the humoral immune response. Required for Relish processing and nuclear translocation following proteolytic cleavage. Involved in the response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and peptidoglycan of Gram-negative bacteria. The different isoforms probably display different recognition capabilities to various microbial patterns. Isoform a and isoform x mediate the induction by LPS and Gram-negative bacteria, while isoform x mediates the induction by peptidoglycan.[1] [2] [3]

About this Structure

2f2l is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Drosophila melanogaster. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
