Structural Basis for Differential Binding of the Interleukin-8 Monomer and Dimer to the CXCR1 N-Domain: Role of Coupled Interactions and Dynamics

Interleukin-8 (IL-8 or CXCL8) plays a critical role in orchestrating the immune response by binding and activating the receptor CXCR1 that belongs to the GPCR class. IL-8 exists as both monomers and dimers, and both bind CXCR1 but with differential affinities. It is well established that the monomer...
