Solution structure of the coxsackievirus and adenovirus receptor domain 2.
The coxsackievirus and adenovirus receptor (CAR) mediates entry of coxsackievirus and adenovirus. CAR possesses an extracellular region that is comprised of 2 immunoglobulin domains termed CAR-D1 and CAR-D2. In the present work, the solution structure of CAR-D2, consisting of residues 142-235 of human CAR, has been determined by NMR spectroscopy. CAR-D2 is shown to be a beta-sandwich motif comprised of two beta-sheets, which are stabilized by two disulfide bonds. The first beta-sheet is comprised of beta-strands A, B, and E, and the second beta-sheet is comprised of beta-strands C, F, and G. A relatively hydrophobic helix is found between beta-strands C and E, which replaces beta-strand D of the classical c-type immunoglobulin fold.
