| Abstract |
In Caenorhabditis elgans, insulin-like peptides have significant roles in modulating larval diapause and adult lifespan via the insulin/IGF-1 signaling (IIS) pathway. Although 40 insulin-like peptides (ILPs) have been identified, it remains unknown how ILPs act as either agonists or antagonists for their sole receptor, DAF-2. Here we found 1) INS-23 functions as an antagonistic ILP to promote larval diapause through the IIS pathway like a DAF-2 antagonist, INS-18, 2) INS-23 and INS-18 have similar biochemical functions. In addition, our molecular modeling suggests that INS-23 and INS-18 have characteristic insertions in the B-domain, which are crucial for the recognition of the insulin receptor, when compared with DAF-2 agonists. These characteristic insertions in the B-domain of INS-23 and INS-18 would modulate their intermolecular interactions with the DAF-2 receptor, which may lead these molecules to act as antagonistic ligands. Our study provides new insight into the function and structure of ILPs. |
