Three of the figures in the article by Sakaniwa & Shimizu [(2020), Acta Cryst. D76, 621–629] were incorrectly annotated. Corrected figures are published here.
Keywords: Toll-like receptors; innate immunity; structural biology; agonist; antagonist; corrigendum.
In the article by Sakaniwa & Shimizu (2020) some residue labels were interchanged and hydrogen bonds were wrongly connected in Figs. 2, 3 and 5. In Fig. 2(g) the labels for D545* and D543* were interchanged and hydrogen bonds were wrongly connected. In Figs. 3(a)–3(c) the labels for D545* and D543* were interchanged and hydrogen bonds were wrongly connected. In Fig. 5(b) hydrogen bonds were wrongly connected.
Corrected figures are published here, and the main-chain atoms that were not involved in the interaction have been removed for clarity in Figs. 2(g)–2(i), Fig. 3
and Fig. 5

![]() | Figure 2 Structures of agonist-bound, unliganded and antagonist-bound forms. (a, b, c) The crystal structures of (a) agonist (R848)-bound, (b) unliganded and (c) antagonist (CU-CPT8m)-bound forms. A representative image of one protomer is colored blue and the other is colored orange and marked with an asterisk (*). The ligands are represented as ball-and-stick models in which C atoms are represented in yellow, O atoms in red and N atoms in blue. (d, e, f) The overall structures of (d) agonist-bound, (e) unliganded and (f) antagonist-bound forms. The leucine-rich repeat (LRRs) around the ligand-recognition sites are highlighted in purple (LRR8), cyan (LRR11–13), green (LRR15*–16*) and red (LRR17*–18*). The unoccupied pocket is shown by a white dashed rectangle. In the agonist-bound structure, the C-terminal regions are closer than those in the inactivated structures. The antagonist-bound structure was similar to the unliganded structure. (g, h, i) Close-up views around (g) the agonist-bound site (PDB entry 3w3l), (h) the unoccupied pocket (PDB entry 3w3g) and (i) the antagonist-bound site (PDB entry 5wyx). The chemical structure of each ligand is shown below the close-up view. Interactions of the agonist involve hydrophobic residues such as Phe346, Tyr348, Gly376, Val378, Ile403–Phe405, Val520*, Asp543*, Gly572*–Thr574* and some hydrogen bonds. Interactions of the antagonist involve hydrophobic residues such as Phe261, Phe346, Val378, Ile403, Phe405, Phe494*, Ala518*, Val520* and Tyr567*, stacking interactions with Tyr348 and Phe495* and some hydrogen bonds. LRR11–13 confront LRR15*–16* in the unliganded structure and the antagonist-bound structure, while LRR11–13 mainly interact with LRR17*–18* in the agonist-bound structure. |
![]() | Figure 3 Close-up views of agonist recognition. (a, b, c) Close-up views around the agonist-bound site with (a) DS-877 (PDB entry 3wn4), (b) MB-564 (PDB entry 5awc) and (c) MB-343 (PDB entry 5az5). The agonists are represented as ball-and-stick models in which C atoms are represented in yellow, O atoms in red and N atoms in blue. Hydrogen bonds are indicated using dashed lines. The chemical structure of each ligand is shown below the close-up view. |
![]() | Figure 5 Close-up views of antagonist recognition. (a, b, c) Close-up views around the antagonist-bound site with (a) CU-CPT9a (PDB entry 5z14), (b) CU-CPT9b (PDB entry 5wyz) and (c) CU-CPT9c (PDB entry 5z15). The agonists are represented as ball-and-stick models in which C atoms are represented in yellow, O atoms in red, N atoms in blue and chloride ions in green. Hydrogen bonds are shown as black dashed lines and the halogen bond is shown as a magenta dashed line. The chemical structure of each ligand is shown below the close-up view. |
