Structure of Herpes Simplex Virus Glycoprotein D Bound to the Human Receptor Nectin-1

Abstract: Binding of herpes simplex virus (HSV) glycoprotein D (gD) to a cell surface receptor is required to trigger membrane fusion during entry into host cells. Nectin-1 is a cell adhesion molecule and the main HSV receptor in neurons and epithelial cells. We report the structure of gD bound to nectin-1 determined by x-ray crystallography to 4.0 Å resolution. The structure reveals that the nectin-1 binding site on gD differs from the binding site of the HVEM receptor. A surface on the first Ig-domain of nectin-1, whi… Show more

“…3 A and B), allowing for the formation of a TIGIT lateral cis-homodimer on cells. A similar crystal packing has also been described for Nectin-1 in complex with glycoprotein D from herpes simplex virus (9). The interface of this TIGIT homodimer buries a total molecular surface area of about 1,000 Å 2 and uses the flat surface of the four-stranded β-sheet on the back of the molecule (Fig.…”

“…Therefore, the true scenario of the structural basis for the diverse binding properties of nectins/Necls remains a big issue. Recently, our group (61) and Di Giovine et al (62) independently discovered that human HSV-1 glycoprotein D (gD) unexpectedly precluded the nectin-1 dimer from entering host cells (i.e., the binding interface of nectin-1 to gD is almost the same as the nectin-1 dimer interface), revealing the monomeric nectin-1 binding mode to gD, rather than the suspected nectin-1 dimeric binding.…”
