`Summary
`
`Leu-2/TB is a cell surface glycoprotein expressed by
`most cytotoxic and suppressor T lymphocytes. Its ex(cid:173)
`pression on T cells correlates best with recognition of
`class I major histocompatibility complex antigens,
`and it has been postulated to be a receptor for these
`proteins. We have determined the complete primary
`structure of Leu-2/TB from the nucleotide sequence of
`its cDNA. The protein contains a classical signal pep(cid:173)
`tide, two external domains, a hydrophobic transmem(cid:173)
`brane region, and a cytoplasmic tail. The N-terminal
`domain of the protein has striking homology to varia(cid:173)
`ble regions of immunoglobulins and the T cell recep(cid:173)
`tor. The membrane-proximal domain appears to be a
`hinge-like region similar to that of immunoglobulin
`heavy chains. The superfamily of immunologically im(cid:173)
`portant surface molecules can now be extended to in(cid:173)
`clude Leu-2/TB.
`
`Introduction
`
`The Leu-2/TS T cell differentiation antigen is a cell surface
`glycoprotein expressed by distinct subsets of human T
`lymphocytes. It is the analog and presumed homolog of
`mouse Lyt-2,3 (Reinherz and Schlossman, 1980; Ledbet(cid:173)
`ter et al., 1981). Traditionally, these differentiation antigens
`have been considered markers of T cell function: cytotox(cid:173)
`ic and suppressor cells expressing Leu-2/TS (Lyt-2,3 in
`mouse) and helper/inducer cells expressing the alterna(cid:173)
`tive antigen Leu-3/T4 (L3T4 in mouse). However, recent
`data from many laboratories have indicated that expres(cid:173)
`sion of Leu-2/TS or Leu-3/T4 correlates not so much with
`function as with recognition by T cells of class I (HLA-A,
`B, C) or class II (HLA-DP, DQ, DR) major histocompatibility
`complex (MHC) antigens, respectively (Engleman et al. ,
`1981; Krensky et al., 1982a, 1982b; Meuer et al., 1982).
`Leu-2/TS is thought to be involved in the recognition by
`cytotox ic T cells of their targets. Monoclonal antibodies
`directed against Leu-2/TS inhibit cytotoxicity by most Leu-
`2/TS• killer T cells (Meuer et al., 1982; Spits et al., 1982;
`Reinherz et al., 1983). This block is at the step of con-

`
`jugate formation between the cytotoxic cell and the target
`cell, rather than at the later killing steps (Tsoukas et al.,
`1982; Landegren et al., 1982; Moretta et al. , 1984). It has
`been suggested that the function of Leu-2/TS (or Lyt-2,3)
`is to increase the avidity of, or stabilize the interaction be(cid:173)
`tween, the T cell and its target (Meuer et al., 1982; Mac(cid:173)
`Donald et al., 1982; Moretta et al. , 1984), perhaps by bind(cid:173)
`ing to nonpolymorphic regions of class I MHC molecules
`(Krensky et al., 1982a; Meuer et al., 1982; Ball and
`Stastny, 1982; Spits et al., 1982; Biddison et al., 1982; En(cid:173)
`gleman et al., 1983).
`On peripheral T cells the Leu-2/TS protein consists of
`dimers and higher multimers of a 32-34 kd glycosylated
`subunit, linked together by disulfide bridges (Ledbetter et
`al., 1981 ; Snow et al., 1983). On thymocytes, in addition
`to homodimers of this polypeptide, a 46 kd subunit is disul(cid:173)
`fide linked to the smaller chain in tetramers and higher
`multimers (Ledbetter et al. , 1981; Snow and Terhorst,
`1983). This larger subunit does not bear the TS deter(cid:173)
`minant, is unrelated to the smaller subunit by peptide
`mapping, and is presumably not required for the function
`of the molecule on mature T cells (Snow and Terhorst,
`1983). Snow et al. (1984) have recently sequenced 25
`N-terminal residues of Leu-2/TS and found no significant
`homology to any other proteins. Determination of the com(cid:173)
`plete primary structure of Leu-2/TS would be of enormous
`value not only for evolutionary comparisons but also for
`further studies of the function of the protein in T cell recog(cid:173)
`nition . To this end we have recently isolated cDNA clones
`that encode Leu-2/TS (Kavathas et al., 1984). We have
`now determined the complete amino acid sequence of the
`Leu-2/TS protein from the nucleotide sequence of a cDNA
`clone. We find that the protein has a classical signal pep(cid:173)
`tide, two external domains, a transmembrane region, and
`an intracytoplasmic tail. One of the external domains has
`striking sequence homology to variable regions of other
`immunological recognition molecules. The results sug(cid:173)
`gest a common evolutionary origin of Leu-2/TS, immuno(cid:173)
`globulin, and T cell receptor genes.
`
`Results
`
`Nucleotide Sequence of Leu-2/TB cDNA
`The nucleotide sequence of Leu-2/TS was determined
`from a single cDNA clone, pL2-M, containing a 2 kb insert,
`although large portions were confirmed on pdditional
`clones. Figure 1 shows a restriction map of the insert of
`clone pl2-M, indicating the enzyme sites used for sub(cid:173)
`cloning into M13 vectors. The nucleotide sequence of this
`clone is presented in Figure 2. There are two long open
`reading frames of similar sizes at the 5' end of this clone.
`One of these extends from the beginning of the clone
`through nucleotide 632. There are no methionines in this
`frame, so if it represents a translated protein, our clone is
`missing the initiation codon. The second open reading
`frame begins at nucleotide 1 and extends through nucleo(cid:173)
`tide 792. This latter frame encodes Leu-2/TS, as deter-

`A map of the 2 kb Eco RI insert of cDNA clone pl2-M is shown. The

`for DNA sequencing. A, Ava I; S, Sau 3A; R, Asa I; H, Hint I. The artifi(cid:173)

`
`mined by comparison with the N-terminal protein se(cid:173)
`quence (Snow et al., 1984). The first ATG in this frame is
`at nucleotide 88. We believe this to be the initiation codon.
`Accordingly, clone pL2-M contains 115 bp of 5' untrans(cid:173)
`lated region (not all shown), 705 bp of protein coding se(cid:173)
`quence (235 amino acids), and 1182 bp of 3' untranslated
`region. Neither this clone nor another extending 85 bp
`more 3' contains a poly(A) tail. The mRNA represented by
`these clones is approximately 2.5 kb in length (Kavathas
`et al., 1984). Our clones span 2.1 kb, so we are missing
`approximately 400 bp. We presume that most of this is 3'
`untranslated region and poly(A) tail.

`Figure 3. Comparison of the Amino Acid Sequence of the N-Terminal Domain of Leu-2/T8 with lmmunoglobulin and T Cell Receptor Variable Region
`Seq uences
`The Leu-2/T8 sequ ence is the first 96 am ino acids of the mature protein. Simi larities to Leu-21T8 are denoted by a dot (.); gaps in the alignments
`are indicated by blank spaces. lmmunoglobulin lambda, kappa, and heavy chain V regions are denoted V1, V,, and VH, T cell recepto r a and fl cha in
`V regions are denoted V0 and Vp- The sequ ence alignments were derived by comparing all members of a given class of V regions (e.g. kappa,
`lambda) against one another and Leu-21T8 simultaneously to achieve the best alignment for a group of sequences, with attention paid to alignment
`of certain key co nserved res idues. All of the immunog lobul in V sequences in the Dayhoff bank we re utilized , as were all published and some unpub(cid:173)
`lished T cell receptor sequences (L. E Hood, personal co mmun ication)_ The sequences we re from the following sources : human Ha V,-I (S hinoda
`et al., 1970) ; human Meg V,-II (Fett and Deutsch. 1974); mouse U61 V, (Vrana et al , 1979); human Len V, (Schneider and Hilschmann . 1975); mouse
`VH (Capra and Nisonoff, 1979); rat IR2 VH (Hellman et al. , 1982); mouse TT11 V0 (Chien et al. , 1984); human TY35 Vp (Yanagi et al, 1984).
`
`Predicted Amino Acid Sequence of Leu-2/TB
`The predicted amino acid sequence of Leu-2/T8 is shown
`in Figure 2. The protein begins with a 21 amino acid
`hydrophobic leader sequence, presumably representing
`a signal peptide that is cleaved off as the protein passes
`into the endoplasmic reticulum . The indicated start of the
`mature processed protein is based upon comparison with
`the published N-terminal protein sequence (Snow et al.,
`1984). Our N-terminal sequence differs from the latter in
`only two places. We predict a glutamine at residue 2, while
`the protein sequence indicates glutamic acid at this posi(cid:173)
`tion . As the cDNA was sequenced multiple times on both
`strands, we believe that either this residue became deami(cid:173)
`dated during the protein purification or there was an error
`made by reverse transcriptase during the cDNA cloning.
`Snow et al. (1984) placed a gap of one amino acid between
`the cysteine at residue 22 and the two leucines at what
`were considered residues 24 and 25. We predict two
`amino acids in this region : glutamine at residue 23 and va(cid:173)
`line at 24. This discrepancy is likely to be a protein se(cid:173)
`quencing error, since it is at the very end of the deter(cid:173)
`mined sequence. However, it is possible that either or both
`of these discrepancies could be the result of polymor(cid:173)
`ph ism .
`The mature Leu-2/T8 protein consists of 214 amino
`acids. A 24 amino acid hydrophobic segment begins at
`position 162. We believe this to represent a transmem(cid:173)
`bra ne region . The following 29 amino acid C-terminal seg(cid:173)
`ment (residues 186-214) is highly charged (ten basic
`res idues and only one acidic residue) and is presumably
`an intracytoplasmic tail. Our sequence predicts an ungly(cid:173)
`cosylated mature protein chain of 23,554 daltons as com(cid:173)
`pared to the described 32,000-34,000 dalton glycosylated
`subunit size (Ledbetter et al., 1981; Snow and Terhorst,
`1983). However, when Snow et al. (1984) treated the iso(cid:173)
`lated protein with trifluoromethane sulfonic acid (TFMS) to
`remove both N-linked and O-linked carbohydrate, the size
`was reduced only 1.5-2 kd. The reasons for this discrep(cid:173)
`ancy are unclear, but most likely relate to incomplete
`cleavage of carbohydrates from the protein with TFMS.
`Although our sequence predicts one potential site for
`N-l inked glycosylation (Arg-X-Thr or Arg-X-Ser) , at position
`28, it may not be used, since experiments with endoglyco(cid:173)
`sidase F suggest that there is no N-linked glycosylation
`(Snow and Terhorst, 1983).
`
`Leu-2/TB Is Homologous to lmmunoglobulin and
`T Cell Receptor Variable Regions
`We searched the Dayhoff protein sequence data bank for
`homologies of the predicted Leu-2/T8 protein sequence to
`other proteins. The greatest amount of homology found
`was to immunoglobulin light chain variable (V) regions,
`with less but still significant homology to immunoglobulin
`heavy chain V regions (VH) and V regions of the er and {3
`chains of the T cell receptor. Comparisons of the Leu-2/T8
`protein sequence with examples of immunoglobul in and
`T cell receptor V region sequences are illustrated in Fig(cid:173)
`ure 3. The segment of Leu-2/T8 that is homologous to a
`V region is at the N terminus and extends to amino acid
`96. For the V regions the homology to Leu-2/T8 stops just
`before the D (diversity) segment (if one is present) or the
`J (joining) segment. With the alignment shown the homol(cid:173)
`ogy is on the order of 30%-35% to lambda and kappa V
`regions, 20%-22% to VH, and 24% to T cell receptor er
`and {3 chain V regions. The homology increases substan(cid:173)
`tially (e.g. up to 56% for lambda or 58% for kappa) if one
`includes conservative amino acid substitutions. As shown
`in Figure 3, there are seven amino acids that are con(cid:173)
`served in all of these sequences. These include the two
`cysteine residues involved in the classical intrachain di(cid:173)
`sulfide loop of V regions (positions 22 and 94 for Leu-2/T8)
`and the tryptophan at position 35, which is thought to be
`important for the proper folding of immunoglobulin do(cid:173)
`mains. Leu-2/T8 contains most of the residues of light
`chain V regions that are used for association with heavy
`chains (Poljak et al., 1975), as well as many of the V region
`contact residue s in light chain dimers (Davies et al. , 1975).
`We therefore predict that the two V-like domains in Leu-
`2/T8 dimers are associated with one another (noncova(cid:173)
`lently), and probably form a single binding site for a pre(cid:173)
`sumed ligand . As might be expected, the homology of
`Leu-2/T8 to V regions is predominantly to framework
`rather than hypervariable regions. The level of homology
`does not vary substantially across mammalian species.
`In contrast to the findings for the N-terminal external do(cid:173)
`main, the 65 amino acid membrane-proximal domain of
`Leu-2/T8 bears no strong resemblance to constant region
`domains of immunoglobulins or the T cell receptor and is
`not homologous to other known proteins. However, a
`stretch of 21 amino acids in the center of this domain
`(residues 120- 140) is homologous to the hinge region of

`the mouse lgA heavy chain (Figure 4). Although we doubt
`an evolutionary significance of this homology, evidence
`discussed below suggests that the domain containing this
`sequence is a hinge. The remaining protein domains ap(cid:173)
`pear unique to Leu-2/T8.
`
`Structural Predictions
`We have analyzed the Leu-2/T8 sequence using a formula
`similar to that of Kyte and Doolittle (1982) for determining
`the degree of hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity of segments
`of a protein . Such analyses allow one to predict which por(cid:173)
`tions of a protein are exposed, interior, or embedded in a
`membrane. A hydrophobicity plot of the Leu-2/T8 se(cid:173)
`quence is shown in Figure 5. The putative signal peptide
`(residues -21 to -1) and transmembrane domain (resi(cid:173)
`dues 162 to 185) are both demonstrated to be highly hydro(cid:173)
`phobic, while the presumed intracytoplasmic tail (residues
`186 to 214) is very hydrophilic. The V-like N-terminal exter(cid:173)
`nal domain has alternating stretches of hydrophobic and
`hydrophilic residues as seen in globular proteins (Kyte
`and Doolittle, 1982). Furthermore, the plot for this domain
`is virtually superimposable on those for kappa, lambda,
`and heavy chain V regions, except for an extra hydrophilic
`segment in Leu-2/T8 between amino acids 6 and 15 (data
`not shown). These results suggest a great deal of conser(cid:173)
`vation of structure among these protein domains. We fur(cid:173)
`ther analyzed the Leu-2/T8 protein sequence according to
`the parameters of Chou and Fasman (1978) and find that
`the predicted (3-sheet structure of the N-terminal domain
`is the same as that for light chain V regions. In contrast,
`the membrane-proximal external domain does not fit into
`any structure. Therefore this domain, which was shown to
`contain a sequence homologous to the mouse lgA hinge,
`is itself predicted to be a hinge region .
`
`The Leu-2/TS Gene Does Not Rearrange in Cells
`That Express the Protein
`Variable regions of immunoglobulins and the T cell recep(cid:173)
`tor are not expressed as functional receptor molecules un(cid:173)
`til their genes rearrange during the development of B cells
`or T cells, respectively, and become juxtaposed to either
`a J or D and J segments just upstream from a constant re(cid:173)
`gion gene. Since these proteins are homologous to Leu-
`2/T8, it was important to determine whether the Leu-2/T8
`gene also rearranges in T cells that express this protein.
`We have therefore compared Southern blots of DNA from
`human placenta (which does not express Leu-2/T8 protein
`or mRNA) and from a Leu-2/T8-expressing thymoma cell
`line, JM, hybridized to the insert of cDNA clone pL2-M . As
`
`illustrated in Figure 6, no difference could be detected be(cid:173)
`tween the two DNAs with any of the four enzymes used
`(Barn HI, Eco RI, Apa I, and Eco RV). There is also no
`difference seen with Hind Ill (data not shown). Since the
`probe contains the entire coding sequence as well as
`most of the noncoding portions, we conclude that no ma(cid:173)
`jor rearrangements are required for expression of this
`gene. Although we cannot exclude very small rearrange(cid:173)
`ments with either little or no deletion of DNA, immuno(cid:173)
`globulin and T cell receptor type rearrangements would
`have been easily detectable.
`The data shown in Figure 6 also suggest that Leu-2/T8
`is encoded by a single gene. The Southern blots show one
`to three hybridizing bands, depending upon the enzyme.
`Differential hybridization to 5' and 3' probes indicates that
`when multiple bands are present, they represent portions
`of a single gene, and all of the hybridizing fragments can
`be accounted for on a s
