Toll-like receptor 4 pathway evolutionary trajectory and functional emergence by Shailya Verma, Ramanathan Sowdhamini, Ramanathan Sowdhamini, Ramanathan Sowdhamini

“…We also performed molecular dynamics simulations of these complexes and cross-validated the functionally important residues using network parameters.ResultsWe compared the stoichiometry of TRAM–TRIF complexes and found that the tetrameric models (TRAM and TRIF dimer) were more stable than the trimeric model (TRAM dimer and TRIF monomer). While the critical residues of TIRAP, TRIF, and MyD88 were preserved, we also found that the important residues of TRAM signaling were not conserved in C. milli.DiscussionThis suggests the presence of functional TIRAP–MyD88-mediated TLR4 signaling and TRIF-mediated TLR3 signaling in the ancestral species. …”
