Integrin-ligand interactions are known to be dependent on divalent cations, although the precise role of cations in ligand binding is still unclear. Using the interaction between alpha 5 beta 1 and fibronectin as a model system, we have performed a comprehensive analysis of the effects of Mn2+, Mg2+, and Ca2+ on ligand binding. Each cation had distinct effects on the ligand-binding capacity of alpha 5 beta 1:Mn2+ promoted high levels of ligand binding, Mg2+ promoted low levels of binding, and Ca2+ failed to support binding. Studies of the effects of different combinations of cations on ligand binding indicated that the cation-binding sites within alpha 5 beta 1 are not all identical, or of broad specificity, but instead each site shows a distinct preference for one or more cations. Ca2+ strongly inhibited Mn(2+)-supported ligand binding, but this inhibition was noncompetitive, suggesting that Ca2+ recognizes different cation-binding sites to Mn2+. In contrast, Ca2+ acted as a direct competitive inhibitor of Mg(2+)-supported ligand binding, implying that Ca2+ can displace Mg2+ from the integrin. However, low concentrations of Ca2+ greatly increased the apparent affinity of Mg2+ for its binding site, suggesting the existence of a distinct high affinity Ca(2+)-binding site. Taken together, our results imply that the ligand-binding capacity of alpha 5 beta 1 can be regulated in a complex manner through separate classes of binding sites for Mn2+, Mg2+, and Ca2+.
