The glycosaminoglycan heparan sulfate (HS), present at the surface of most cells
and ubiquitous in extracellular matrix, binds many soluble extracellular
signalling molecules such as chemokines and growth factors, and regulates their
transport and effector functions. It is, however, unknown whether upon binding HS
these proteins can affect the long-range structure of HS. To test this idea, we
interrogated a supramolecular model system, in which HS chains grafted to
streptavidin-functionalized oligoethylene glycol monolayers or supported lipid
bilayers mimic the HS-rich pericellular or extracellular matrix, with the
biophysical techniques quartz crystal microbalance (QCM-D) and fluorescence
recovery after photobleaching (FRAP). We were able to control and characterize
the supramolecular presentation of HS chains--their local density, orientation,
conformation and lateral mobility--and their interaction with proteins. The
chemokine CXCL12? (or SDF-1?) rigidified the HS film, and this effect was due to
protein-mediated cross-linking of HS chains. Complementary measurements with
CXCL12? mutants and the CXCL12? isoform provided insight into the molecular
mechanism underlying cross-linking. Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2), which has
three HS binding sites, was also found to cross-link HS, but FGF-9, which has
just one binding site, did not. Based on these data, we propose that the ability
to cross-link HS is a generic feature of many cytokines and growth factors, which
depends on the architecture of their HS binding sites. The ability to change
matrix organization and physico-chemical properties (e.g. permeability and
rigidification) implies that the functions of cytokines and growth factors may
not simply be confined to the activation of cognate cellular receptors.
