Characterization of ICAM-4 binding to the I domains of the CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 leukocyte integrins.
Intercellular adhesion molecule-4 (ICAM-4, LW blood group antigen), a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily expressed on red cells, has been reported to bind to CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 leukocyte integrins. The location of the ICAM-4 binding sites on CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 are not known. CD11/CD18 integrin I domains have been found to act as major binding sites for physiological ligands and a negatively charged glutamic acid in ICAMs is considered important for binding. ICAM-4 lacks such a residue, which is replaced by an arginine. However, we demonstrate here that ICAM-4 in red cells and transfected fibroblasts interacts specifically with the I domains of CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 integrins. The binding was inhibited by anti-I domain and anti-ICAM-4 antibodies and it was dependent on divalent cations. Interestingly, ICAM-4 negative red cells were still able to bind to the CD11b/CD18 I domain but the binding of these cells to the CD11a/CD18 I domain was clearly reduced. Using a solid phase assay, we were able to show that isolated I domains directly and specifically bind to purified recombinant ICAM-4 in a cation dependent manner. Competition experiments indicated that the binding sites in ICAM-4 for the CD11a and CD11b I domains are different. However, the ICAM-4 binding region in both I domains seems to overlap with the regions recognized by the ICAM-1 and ICAM-2. Thus we have established that the I domains contain an ICAM-4 binding region in CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 leukocyte integrins.Eveliina Ihanus, Liisa Uotila, Anne Toivanen, Michael Stefanidakis, Pascal Bailly, Jean-Pierre Cartron, Carl G Gahmberg
