Requirement for TRAF3 in Signaling by LMP1 But Not CD40 in B Lymphocytes
CD40, a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family, and the Epstein-Barr virus-encoded oncoprotein latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) share several tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor (TRAF) adaptor proteins for signaling. Among these, TRAF3 was the first identified to directly bind both receptors, yet its role remains a mystery. To address this, we generated B cell lines de...
متن کاملLMP1 protein from the Epstein-Barr virus is a structural CD40 decoy in B lymphocytes for binding to TRAF3.
Epstein-Barr virus is a human herpesvirus that causes infectious mononucleosis and lymphoproliferative malignancies. LMP1 (latent membrane protein-1), which is encoded by this virus and which is essential for transformation of B lymphocytes, acts as a constitutively active mimic of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) CD40. LMP1 is an integral membrane protein containing six transmembrane ...
متن کاملMolecular basis for CD40 signaling mediated by TRAF3.
Tumor necrosis factor receptors (TNFR) are single transmembrane-spanning glycoproteins that bind cytokines and trigger multiple signal transduction pathways. Many of these TNFRs rely on interactions with TRAF proteins that bind to the intracellular domain of the receptors. CD40 is a member of the TNFR family that binds to several different TRAF proteins. We have determined the crystal structure...
متن کاملRoles of TNF receptor-associated factor 3 in signaling to B lymphocytes by carboxyl-terminal activating regions 1 and 2 of the EBV-encoded oncoprotein latent membrane protein 1.
TNFR-associated factor (TRAF)3, an adaptor protein that binds the cytoplasmic domains of both CD40 and the EBV-encoded oncoprotein latent membrane protein (LMP)1, is required for positive signaling by LMP1 but not CD40 in B lymphocytes. The present study further investigated how TRAF3 participates in LMP1 signaling. We found that TRAF3 mediates signaling both through direct interactions with th...
متن کاملCD40-Induced TRAF degradation in immune regulation
CD40 is a TNF receptor superfamily (TNFRSF) member central to the development of many aspects of the adaptive immune response. CD40 signaling promotes adaptive immunity in part by inducing the expression of cytokines, chemokines, and various adhesion and co-stimulatory molecules. The family of cytoplasmic adapter proteins, the TNFR-associated factors (TRAFs), serve as major mediators of TNFRSF ...
