Putative effect of PTX on cell activation. PTX binds to a yet to be defined cell surface receptor through the subunit B-oligomer, which enables the entry of the A-protomer. The A-protomer inhibits Gi protein activation of CCR5 in response to chemokines, whereas the B-oligomer elicits a series of cellular signaling events that may lead to desensitization of CCR5. DAG, diacylglycerol; GD(T)P, guanosine di(tri)phosphate; GRK, G protein–coupled receptor kinase; IP, inositol phosphate; MAPK, mitogen-activated protein kinase; PI3K, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; PIP3, phosphatidylinositol trisphosphate; PLC(D), phospholipase C(D).
