Proteolysis Regulates Exposure of the IIICS-1 Adhesive Sequence in Plasma Fibronectin

Abstract: The alternatively spliced type III connecting segment (IIICS) of fibronectin (Fn) contains an amino acid sequence, CS-1, which is recognized by the integrin receptor, alpha 4 beta 1. Plasma Fn inhibits alpha 4 beta 1-dependent binding of lymphocytes and monocytes to CS-1 containing Fn derivatives poorly, suggesting limited exposure of the CS-1 sequence in Fn. To test the availability of CS-1 in plasma Fn, an antibody was raised to the synthetic peptide CS-1. The CS-1 sequence was found to be minimally exposed … Show more

“…22,[24][25][26] Fibronectin proteolysis by chymotrypsin and cathepsins B and D exposes integrin-binding sites such as the RGD (Arg-GlyAsp) site thereby enhancing integrin binding. 24,56 It is currently unknown where exactly GzmB cleaves fibronectin, however, GzmB preferentially cleaves after Asp residues 57,58 and Buzza et al have demonstrated that GzmB cleaves vitronectin at the RGD integrin-binding site. 27 Although fibronectin proteolysis by some proteases can enhance integrin binding and contraction, 24,56 GzmB-mediated proteolysis may have profoundly different effects depending on the site of cleavage and, although not confirmed, could negatively influence contraction should integrin binding to the RGD site be disrupted.…”

In our study, we demonstrate that HFD-fed AKO mice express GzmB within the granulation tissue, contain elevated levels of a fibronectin fragment similar to that generated by GzmB in vitro, which corresponds with significantly delayed wound contraction that was improved in DKO mice.…”

“…This integrin binds to the connecting segment region called IIICS or V (variable) as well as to a similar site in the Hep II domain of fibronectin (42,43). In native plasma fibronectin the CS-1 adhesion site is masked but can be exposed under partial proteolysis with cathepsin D (44). Because the ADAM13 adhesive domain can bind to the second heparin-binding domain of fibronectin and the ADAM13 metalloprotease domain can cleave fibronectin, it will be of interest to investigate whether this cleavage can also expose the CS-1 site.…”

“…It will be important to consider whether ␣ 5 ␤ 1 can distinguish soluble Fg, immobilized Fg, or fibrin and plasmic degradation products of Fg/fibrin. Precedence exists for differential recognition of various forms of Fg and other ligands by integrins (54). Thus, the availability of specific receptors on the luminal surface, the activation states Fibrinogen Binding to ␣ 5 ␤ 1 on HUVECof the EC and these receptors, the occupancy of these receptors by competing ligands, and the nature of the ligands may determine which receptors will mediate Fg recognition by HUVEC.…”
