| 1 | From our findings, we hypothesize that disulfide A-box fragment binds as an anchor toward the TLR4-MD-2 but does not facilitate the TLR4 dimer formation, thereby competing with the HMGb1-binding site and preventing HMGb1-induced signaling and downstream inflammation, whereas the pro-inflammatory B-box fragment retains the MD-2 active conformation and binds to both TLR4 proteins in the complex to aid TLR4 dimer formation, which activates the intracellular signaling for downstream inflammatory pathways and cytokine release. | Disulfides | high mobility group box 1 | Homo sapiens |
