Abstract
The three-dimensional crystal structure of the complex between the Fab from the monoclonal anti-lysozyme antibody D1.3 and the antigen, hen egg white lysozyme, has been refined by crystallographic techniques using x-ray intensity data to 2.5-A resolution. The antibody contacts the antigen with residues from all its complementarity determining regions. Antigen residues 18-27 and 117-125 form a discontinuous antigenic determinant making hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions with the antibody. Water molecules at or near the antigen-antibody interface mediate some contacts between antigen and antibody. The fine specificity of antibody D1.3, which does not bind (K alpha less than 10(5) M-1) avian lysozymes where Gln121 in the amino acid sequence is occupied by His, can be explained on the basis of the refined model.
