AB - Proteins embedded in the plasma membrane mediate interactions with the cell environment and play decisiveroles in many signaling events. For cell−cell recognition molecules, it is highly likely that their structures and behavior have beenoptimized in ways that overcome the limitations of membrane tethering. In particular, the ligand binding regions of theseproteins likely need to be maximally exposed. Here we show by means of atomistic simulations of membrane-bound CD2, a smallcell adhesion receptor expressed by human T-cells and natural killer cells, that the presentation of its ectodomain is highlydependent on membrane lipids and receptor glycosylation acting in apparent unison. Detailed analysis shows that the underlyingmechanism is based on electrostatic interactions complemented by steric interactions between glycans in the protein and themembrane surface. The findings are significant for understanding the factors that render membrane receptors accessible forbinding and signaling.
