Structural basis for the inhibition of βFXIIa by garadacimab
Activated FXII (FXIIa) is the principal initiator of the plasma contact system and can activate both procoagulant and proinflammatory pathways. Its activity is important in the pathophysiology of hereditary angioedema (HAE). Here, we describe a high-resolution cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of the beta-chain from FXIIa (βFXIIa) complexed with the Fab fragment of garadacimab. Garadacimab binds to βFXIIa through an unusually long CDR-H3 that inserts into the S1 pocket in a non-canonical way. This structural mechanism is likely the primary contributor to the inhibition of activated FXIIa proteolytic activity in HAE. Garadacimab Fab-βFXIIa structure also reveals critical determinants of high-affinity binding of garadacimab to activated FXIIa. Structural analysis with other bona fide FXIIa inhibitors, such as benzamidine and C1-INH, reveals a surprisingly similar mechanism of βFXIIa inhibition by garadacimab. In summary, the garadacimab Fab-βFXIIa structure provides crucial insights into its mechanism of action and delineates primary and auxiliary paratopes/epitopes.
期刊介绍:
Structure aims to publish papers of exceptional interest in the field of structural biology. The journal strives to be essential reading for structural biologists, as well as biologists and biochemists that are interested in macromolecular structure and function. Structure strongly encourages the submission of manuscripts that present structural and molecular insights into biological function and mechanism. Other reports that address fundamental questions in structural biology, such as structure-based examinations of protein evolution, folding, and/or design, will also be considered. We will consider the application of any method, experimental or computational, at high or low resolution, to conduct structural investigations, as long as the method is appropriate for the biological, functional, and mechanistic question(s) being addressed. Likewise, reports describing single-molecule analysis of biological mechanisms are welcome.
In general, the editors encourage submission of experimental structural studies that are enriched by an analysis of structure-activity relationships and will not consider studies that solely report structural information unless the structure or analysis is of exceptional and broad interest. Studies reporting only homology models, de novo models, or molecular dynamics simulations are also discouraged unless the models are informed by or validated by novel experimental data; rationalization of a large body of existing experimental evidence and making testable predictions based on a model or simulation is often not considered sufficient.
