Abstract

SUMMARY TRAF1/2 and cIAP1/2 are members of the TNF receptor associated factor (TRAF) and the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) families, respectively. They are critical for both the canonical and the noncanonical NF-κB signaling pathways. Here we report the crystal structures of the TRAF2: cIAP2 and the TRAF1: TRAF2: cIAP2 complexes. A TRAF2 trimer interacts with one cIAP2 both in the crystal and in solution. Two chains of the TRAF2 trimer directly contact cIAP2 and key residues at the interface are confirmed by mutagenesis both in vitro and in cells. TRAF1 and TRAF2 preferentially form the TRAF1: (TRAF2)2 heterotrimer, which interacts with cIAP2 more strongly than TRAF2 alone. In contrast, TRAF1 alone interacts very weakly with cIAP2. Surprisingly, TRAF1 and one chain of TRAF2 in the TRAF1: (TRAF2)2: cIAP2 ternary complex mediate interaction with cIAP2. Because TRAF1 is dramatically upregulated by many stimuli, it may modulate the interaction of TRAF2 with cIAP1/2, which explains previously noted regulatory roles of TRAF1 in TNF signaling.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
