Interferon and heparan sulphate.
In 1954, substances that protected cells from viral infection were discovered and named IFN (interferon). This family of cytokines, which were the first to be used in clinical therapy, is classified into type I and II IFNs. Type I mainly consists of IFNalpha and IFNbeta subtypes, which are structurally related and bind to a common receptor. IFNgamma, the sole type II IFN, is structurally unrela...
متن کاملHeparin/heparan sulphate binding in the TGF-β cytokine superfamily
The TGF-β (transforming growth factor-β) cytokine superfamily in mammals contains some 30 members. These dimeric proteins are characterized by a strongly conserved cystine knot-based structure. They regulate the proliferation, differentiation and migration of many cell types, and therefore have important roles in morphogenesis, organogenesis, tissue maintenance and wound healing. Thus far, arou...
متن کاملFibroblast growth factors share binding sites in heparan sulphate.
HS (heparan sulphate) proteoglycans bind secreted signalling proteins, including FGFs (fibroblast growth factors) through their HS side chains. Such chains contain a wealth of differentially sulphated saccharide epitopes. Whereas specific HS structures are commonly believed to modulate FGF-binding and activity, selective binding of defined HS epitopes to FGFs has generally not been demonstrated...
متن کاملHeparan sulphate proteoglycans: the sweet side of development.
Pattern formation during development is controlled to a great extent by a small number of conserved signal transduction pathways that are activated by extracellular ligands such as Hedgehog, Wingless or Decapentaplegic. Genetic experiments have identified heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPGs) as important regulators of the tissue distribution of these extracellular signalling molecules. Severa...
متن کاملDecorin endocytosis: structural features of heparin and heparan sulphate oligosaccharides interfering with receptor binding and endocytosis.
Receptor-mediated endocytosis of decorin depends on its core-protein-mediated interaction with a 51 kDa membrane protein, which, in addition to its core-protein-binding site, carries a binding site for glycosaminoglycan chains. Membrane-associated heparan sulphate as well as heparin are known to have an inhibitory effect on decorin endocytosis by cultured skin fibroblasts. In this study, struct...
