description | Abstract
Human calprotectin (CP, S100A8/S100A9 oligomer) is an abundant neutrophil protein that contributes to innate immunity by sequestering nutrient metal ions in the extracellular space. This process starves invading microbial pathogens of essential metal nutrients, which can inhibit growth and colonization. Over the past decade, fundamental and clinical studies have revealed that the S100A8 and S100A9 subunits of CP exhibit a variety of post-translational modifications (PTMs). This review summarizes PTMs on the CP subunits that have been detected and highlights two recent studies that evaluated the structural and functional consequences of methionine and cysteine oxidation on CP. Collectively, these investigations indicate that the molecular speciation of extracellular CP is complex and composed of multiple proteoforms. Moreover, PTMs may impact biological function and the lifetime of the protein. It is therefore important that post-translationally modified CP species receive consideration and integration into the current working model for how CP functions in nutritional immunity. |
