Title	Mapping the protein-protein interaction interface between recombinant CB1R and GlyT2 using cross-linking mass spectrometry
Description	This project aims to elucidate a novel molecular mechanism driving mechanical allodynia, a debilitating neuropathic pain condition. We focus on a spinal cord “allodynia gate” circuit in which nerve injury leads to disinhibition of protein kinase Cγ (PKCγ) excitatory neurons. Our findings reveal that this disinhibition is mediated by endocannabinoid (eCB) signaling: eCBs released from PKCγ neurons activate presynaptic cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1R) located on glycinergic (Gly) neurons. A key event in this process is the functional interaction between CB1R and glycine transporter 2 (GlyT2) within Gly neurons. However, the structural basis of the CB1R–GlyT2 complex remained poorly understood. The mass spectrometry data presented in this repository directly address this knowledge gap. Using chemical cross-linking mass spectrometry (CX-MS) with the BS³ cross-linker, we mapped specific interaction interfaces between the N-terminal domain of CB1R and defined extracellular and intracellular domains of GlyT2. The protein–protein interaction identified by CX-MS was independently validated by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assays. The structural insights derived from this CX-MS dataset enabled the rational design of a disrupting peptide, Tat-STVKIAK-KFERQ, which targets the CB1R–GlyT2 interface. This peptide effectively prevented and alleviated nerve injury–induced mechanical allodynia in mice. Thus, the data provided here not only provide critical structural evidence for a pivotal protein complex in neuropathic pain but also establish a foundation for a targeted therapeutic strategy.
