Figure 1 Electron microscopy pictures of transfected COP5 cells. (A, B, and D–F) Cells transfected with: langerinWT gene (A and B), langerinF241L gene (D and E), and langerinW264R gene (F). (C) Cells not transfected. The characteristic BG structure is shown in (A and B). Arrows point to CMS (observed with langerinWT) or superimposed and thickened membranes (observed with langerinF241L). Comparison of (B) with (E) shows the structural modification of CMS caused by the F241L mutation (substitution of the double layers with an inner striation with short, curved, and irregularly thickened double layers without inner electron-dense bodies), whereas panel (F) shows the loss of CMS with the W264R mutation.

Figure 2 Functional characterization of Lg-CRDs. (A) Delayed elution of Lg-CRDs and BSA in Mannan-Agarose affinity column. BSA, used as a negative control (dotted-dashed line), Lg-CRDWT (solid line), Lg-CRDF241L (dotted line), and Lg-CRDW264R (gray dashed line). (B and C) Sensorgrams of the interaction of Lg-CRDs with gp120. B: Lg-CRDWT. C: Lg-CRDF241L. Both proteins were injected in series of twofold dilutions over the concentration range [12.5 μM, 400 μM].

(B) Thermal shift assay of Lg-CRDWT (solid line), Lg-CRDF241L (dotted line), and Lg-CRDW264R (gray dashed line) as a function of temperature.

Figure 5 Sensorgrams of the interaction of Lg-ECDs with gp120. (A) Lg-ECDWT; concentrations used are 5, 10, 50, 100, 200, 500, 750, and 1000 nM. (B) Lg-ECDF241L; black lines correspond to concentrations of 62.5, 250, 500, and 1000 nM and dotted lines correspond to additional concentrations used, 2, 4, and 6.6 μM.

Figure 8 SAXS analysis. (A) Model of Lg-ECDWT trimer from (30) after incorporation of the trimeric head and proximal coiled-coil region from 3KQG. (B) Comparison of the distance distribution function of Lg-ECDWT model shown in A (cyan line), with that derived from the experimental curve for Lg-ECDWT (red curve). (C) Disorder prediction using PondR (30) in the range 68–198 (neck). (D) Prediction of secondary structure in the same range. Only helices are predicted. (E) Prediction of coiled coil using Logicoil (31). (F) Variation along the SEC elution profile of the protein concentration c (black dashed line), radius of gyration Rg (red diamonds), and I(0)/c (blue squares). Each frame corresponds to a 2 s SAXS pattern. (G) Comparison of the distance distribution functions of the WT trimer (red line) and of the trimer of F241L mutant (purple line). (H) Comparison of the distance distribution functions of the WT trimer (red line) and of the dimer of F241L mutant (green line). (I) Two 90° rotation views of a typical model obtained with SASREF for the dimer of F241L mutant. (J) Black dots: SAXS experimental data for the dimer of F241L mutant with error bars (gray lines); for q < 0.17 Å−1 error bars are smaller than the black dots; green line: calculated curve using CRYSOL from the model shown in Fig. 8 I.
