چکیده

B cell antigen receptor (BCR) signaling initiates sustained cellular calcium influx necessary for the development, differentiation, and activation of B lymphocytes. CD20 is a B cell-restricted tetraspanning protein organized in the plasma membrane as multimeric molecular complexes involved in BCR-activated calcium entry. Using coprecipitation of native CD20 with tagged or truncated forms of the molecule, we provide here direct evidence of CD20 homo-oligomerization into tetramers. Additionally, the function of CD20 was explored by examining its association with surface-labeled and intracellular proteins before and after BCR signaling. Two major surface-labeled proteins that coprecipitated with CD20 were identified as the heavy and light chains of cell surface IgM, the antigen-binding components of the BCR. After activation, BCR-CD20 complexes dissociated, and phosphoproteins and calmodulin-binding proteins were transiently recruited to CD20. These data provide new evidence of the involvement of CD20 in signaling downstream of the BCR and, together with the previously described involvement of CD20 in calcium influx, the first evidence of physical coupling of the BCR to a calcium entry pathway.

Colocalization of the B cell receptor and CD20 followed by activation-dependent dissociation in distinct lipid rafts.

The B cell Ag receptor (BCR) and CD20, a putative calcium channel, inducibly associate with cholesterol-dependent membrane microdomains known as lipid rafts. A functional association between the BCR and CD20 is suggested by the effects of CD20-specific mAbs, which can modulate cell cycle transitions elicited by BCR signaling. Using immunofluorescence microscopy we show here that the BCR and CD2...

Immunogenic and Protective Potentials of Recombinant Receptor Binding Domain and a C-Terminal Fragment of Clostridium botulinum Neurotoxin Type E

Clostridium Botulinum Type E neurotoxin heavy chain consists of two domains: the translocation domain asthe N-terminal half and the binding domain as the Cterminal half (Hc). One effective way to neutralize botulinum neurotoxin is to inhibit binding of this toxin to neuromuscular synapses with antibodies against binding domain. Two synthetic genes, coding for Hc (the full length binding d...

Functional role of lipid rafts in CD20 activity?

CD20 is a B-lymphocyte-specific integral membrane protein, implicated in the regulation of transmembrane calcium conductance, cell-cycle progression and B-lymphocyte proliferation. CD20 is proposed to function as a SOCC (store-operated calcium channel). SOCCs are activated by receptor-stimulated calcium depletion of intracellular stores. Sustained calcium conductivity across the plasma membrane...
