The recently published crystal structure of the external domains of
V 3 confirms the prediction that the aminoterminal portion of V, which shares 40% homology with IIb, folds into a
-propeller structure and that the 4 calcium-binding domains are
positioned on the bottom of the propeller. To gain insight into the
role of the calcium-binding domains in IIb biogenesis, we
characterized mutations in the second and third calcium-binding domains
of IIb in 2 patients with Glanzmann thrombasthenia. One patient
inherited a Val298Phe mutation in the second domain, and the
other patient inherited an Ile374Thr mutation in the third domain.
Mammalian cell expression studies were performed with normal and mutant IIb and 3 cDNA constructs. By flow cytometry, expression of IIb Val298Phe/ 3 in transfected cells was 28% of control, and expression of IIbIle374Thr/ 3 was 11% of control. Pulse-chase analyses showed that both mutant pro- IIb subunits are retained in
the endoplasmic reticulum and degraded. Mutagenesis studies of the
Val298 and Ile374 residues showed that these highly conserved, branch-chained hydrophobic residues are essential at these positions and that biogenesis and expression of IIb 3 is dramatically
affected by structural variations in these regions of the
calcium-binding domains. Energy calculations derived from a new model
of the IIb -propeller indicate that these mutations
interfere with calcium binding. These data suggest that the IIb
calcium-binding domains play a key structural role in the
-propeller, and that the structural integrity of the
calcium-binding domains is critical for integrin biogenesis.
