摘要

Interaction of glycoprotein lbα (GPIbα) with von Willebrand factor (VWF) initiates platelet adhesion to injured vascular wall to stop bleeding. A major contact between GPIba and VWF involves the β-switch region, which is a loop in the unliganded GPIba but switches to a β-hairpin in the complex structure. Paradoxically, flow enhances rather than impedes GPIba-VWF binding. Gain-of-function mutations (e.g., M239V) in the β-switch reduce the flow requirement for VWF binding, whereas loss-of-function mutations (e.g., A238V) increase the flow requirement. These phenomena cannot be explained by crystal structures or energy calculations. Herein we demonstrate that the β-hairpin is unstable without contacting VWF, in that it switches to a loop in free molecular dynamics simulations. Simulations with a novel flow molecular dynamics algorithm show that the loop conformation is unstable in the presence of flow, as it switches to β-hairpin even without contacting VWF. Compared with the wild-type, it is easier for the M239V mutant but harder for the A238V mutant to switch to β-hairpin in the presence of flow. These results elucidate the structural basis for the two mutants and suggest a regulatory mechanism by which flow activates GPIba via inducing a loop-to-β-hairpin conformational transition on the β-switch, thereby promoting VWF binding.
