- W2027177456 abstract "Leucine-rich repeat G-protein-coupled receptors (LGRs) are a unique class of G-protein-coupled receptors characterized by a large extracellular domain to recognize ligands and regulate many important developmental processes. Among the three groups of LGRs, group B members (LGR4–6) recognize R-spondin family proteins (Rspo1–4) to stimulate Wnt signaling. In this study, we successfully utilized the “hybrid leucine-rich repeat technique,” which fused LGR4 with the hagfish VLR protein, to obtain two recombinant human LGR4 proteins, LGR415 and LGR49. We determined the crystal structures of ligand-free LGR415 and the LGR49-Rspo1 complex. LGR4 exhibits a twisted horseshoe-like structure. Rspo1 adopts a flat and β-fold architecture and is bound in the concave surface of LGR4 in the complex through electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. All the Rspo1-binding residues are conserved in LGR4–6, suggesting that LGR4–6 bind R-spondins through an identical surface. Structural analysis of our LGR4-Rspo1 complex with the previously determined LGR4 and LGR5 structures revealed that the concave surface of LGR4 is the sole binding site for R-spondins, suggesting a one-site binding model of LGR4–6 in ligand recognition. The molecular mechanism of LGR4–6 is distinct from the two-step mechanism of group A receptors LGR1–3 and the multiple-interface binding model of group C receptors LGR7–8, suggesting LGRs utilize the divergent mechanisms for ligand recognition. Our structures, together with previous reports, provide a comprehensive understanding of the ligand recognition by LGRs.LGR receptors play important roles in many developmental processes.ResultsThe structure of human LGR4-Rspo1 complex was solved.ConclusionDiverse mechanisms are utilized by LGRs in ligand recognition.SignificanceOur structures are important for potential drug design.
