The main function domain of the CAR ζ is the cytosolic Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Activation Motifs (ITAMs) as mentioned before. When the ligands matches its receptor, the Src family kinases will consequently be phosphorylated and thus activating the cytosolic Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Activation Motifs (ITAMs). The further signal pathway is the same as mentioned in CAR-MEGF10.

The structure and function of CAR ζ

CAR ζ is another CAR aimed to increase the phagocytosis of the macrophages. And the structure is also similar to the other three CARs, with the difference in the intracellular domain which is replaced by CD3ζ(BBa_K4040003) subunit of the T cell receptor.

The mechanism of CAR ζ

In T cells, phosphorylated ITAMs in CD3z bind to tandem SH2 domains (tSH2) in the kinase ZAP70. Zap70 is not expressed in macrophages, but Syk, a phagocytic signaling effector and tSH2 domain containing protein, is expressed at high levels (Andreu et al., 2017). Previous work suggested that Syk kinase can also bind to the CD3z ITAMs (Bu et al., 1995), indicating that the CAR-T may promote engulfment through a similar mechanism as CAR-PFcRV . To quantitatively compare the interaction between SyktSH2 and CD3z or FcRV in a membrane proximal system recapitulating physiological geometry, previous study used liposome-based assay (Figure 1 [Hui and Vale, 2014]). In this system, His10-CD3z and His10-Lck (the kinase that phosphorylates CD3z) are bound to a liposome via NiNTA-lipids and the binding of labeled tandem SH2 domains to phosphorylated CD3z was measured using fluorescence quenching. Their results show that Syk-tSH2 binds the CD3z and FcRV with comparable affinity (~15 nM and ~30 nM respectively, Figure 1). Collectively, these results demonstrate that the TCR CD3z chain can promote phagocytosis in a CAR-P, likely through the recruitment of Syk kinase.[1]

Figure 1. Model of the liposome-based fluorescence quenching assay used to determine affinity between the Syk tSH2 domains and the receptor tails of CD3z and FcRV, two intracellular signaling domains that promote engulfment. Binding between the Syk tSH2 reporter (Syk tSH2), green, and a receptor tail, purple, was detected by rhodamine quenching of BG505 dye on the reporter (see Materials and methods). Kd was determined by assessing mean fluorescence quenching for the last 20 timepoints collected ~45 min after ATP addition over a receptor titration from 0 to 500 nM. Each point represents the mean ± SD from three independent experiments. Kd ± SE was calculated by nonlinear fit assuming one site specific binding
