Four biologically inactive mutant proteins (Arg32----Trp, Leu36----Phe, Ser86----Phe and Ala84----Val) behaved similar to the wild-type in various physico-chemical assays. The residues were positioned on a 3D structural model and were found to cluster together at the base of the molecule at each side of the groove that separates two monomers in the trimeric structure. A very conservative mutation at one of these sites (Ala84----Val) almost completely abolished cytotoxic activity. Amino acid alterations in three other residues in close proximity to this receptor binding site were introduced: replacements at positions 29 and 146 clearly reduced cytotoxicity only when non-conservative alterations were introduced (Leu29----Ser and Glu146----Lys), suggesting an indirect influence on the active site. However, a conservative mutation at position 91 (Val----Ala) caused a significant drop (500-fold) in bioactivity which suggests that Val91 may also play a direct role in receptor recognition. Our results favor a model in which each TNF molecule has three receptor-interaction sites (between the three subunits), thus allowing signal transmission by receptor clustering."xsd:string |
