PubMed Abstract: Integrin αβ is a major fibronectin receptor critical for cell migration. Upon complex formation, fibronectin and αβ undergo conformational changes. While this is key for cell-tissue connections, its mechanism is unknown. Here, we report cryo-electron microscopy structures of native human αβ with fibronectin to 3.1-angstrom resolution, and in its resting state to 4.6-angstrom resolution. The αβ-fibronectin complex revealed simultaneous interactions at the arginine-glycine-aspartate loop, the synergy site, and a newly identified binding site proximal to adjacent to metal ion-dependent adhesion site, inducing the translocation of helix α1 to secure integrin opening. Resting αβ adopts an incompletely bent conformation, challenging the model of integrin sharp bending inhibiting ligand binding. Our biochemical and structural analyses showed that affinity of αβ for fibronectin is increased with manganese ions (Mn) while adopting the half-bent conformation, indicating that ligand-binding affinity does not depend on conformation, and αβ opening is induced by ligand-binding.
