PubMed Abstract: CXCR4 binding of its endogenous agonist CXCL12 leads to diverse functions, including bone marrow retention of hematopoietic progenitors and cancer metastasis. However, the structure of the CXCL12-bound CXCR4 remains unresolved despite available structures of CXCR4 in complex with antagonists. Here, we present the cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of the CXCL12-CXCR4-Gi complex at an overall resolution of 2.65 Å. CXCL12 forms a 1:1 stoichiometry complex with CXCR4, following the two-site model. The first 8 amino acids of mature CXCL12 are crucial for CXCR4 activation by forming polar interactions with minor sub-pocket residues in the transmembrane binding pocket. The 3.2-Å distance between V3 of CXCL12 and the "toggle switch" W marks the deepest insertion among all chemokine-receptor pairs, leading to conformational changes of CXCR4 for G protein activation. These results, combined with functional assays and computational analysis, provide the structural basis for CXCR4 activation by CXCL12.
