CNS myelin contains axon outgrowth inhibitors, such as Nogo,
that restrict regenerative growth after injury. An understanding of the
mechanism of Nogo signaling through its receptor (NgR) is critical to
developing strategies for overcoming Nogo-mediated inhibition. Here we
analyze the function of NgR domains in outgrowth inhibition. Analysis
of alkaline phosphatase (AP)-Nogo binding in COS-7 cells reveals that
the leucine-rich repeat domain is necessary and sufficient for
Nogo binding and NgR multimerization. Viral infection of embryonic day
7 chick retinal ganglion cells with mutated NgR demonstrates
that the NgR C-terminal domain is required for inhibitory signaling but
not ligand binding. The NgR glycosylphosphatidylinositol domain is not
essential for inhibitory signaling but may facilitate Nogo responses.
From this analysis, we have developed a soluble, truncated version of
the Nogo receptor that antagonizes outgrowth inhibition on both myelin
and Nogo substrates. These data suggest that NgR mediates a significant fraction of myelin inhibition of axon outgrowth.
