Abstract
|
 |
|
The crystal structure of the complex between the cross-reacting antigen Guinea
fowl lysozyme and the Fab from monoclonal antibody F9.13.7, raised against hen
egg lysozyme, has been determined by x-ray diffraction to 3-A resolution. The
antibody interacts with exposed residues of an alpha-helix and surrounding loops
adjacent to the lysozyme active site cleft. The epitope of lysozyme bound by
antibody F9.13.7 overlaps almost completely with that bound by antibody HyHEL10;
the same 12 residues of the antigen interact with the two antibodies. The
antibodies, however, have different combining sites with no sequence homology at
any of their complementarity-determining regions and show a dissimilar pattern
of cross-reactivity with heterologous antigens. Side chain mobility of epitope
residues contributes to confer steric and electrostatic complementarity to
differently shaped combining sites, allowing functional mimicry to occur. The
capacity of two antibodies that have different fine specificities to bind the
same area of the antigen emphasizes the operational character of the definition
of an antigenic determinant. This example demonstrates that degenerate binding
of the same structural motif does not require the existence of sequence homology
or other chemical similarities between the different binding sites.
