  ABSTRACT  
 
The outstanding importance of the antigen-antibody recognition process for the survival and defence strategy of higher organisms is in sharp contrast to the limited high resolution structural data available on antibody-antigen pairs with antigenic proteins. The limitation is the most severe for structural data not restricted to the antigen-antibody complex but extending to the uncomplexed antigen and antibody. We report the crystal structure of the complex between tissue factor (TF) and the humanized Fab fragment D3h44 at a resolution of 1.85 A together with the structure of uncomplexed D3h44 at the same resolution. In conjunction with the previously reported 1.7 A crystal structure of uncomplexed TF, a unique opportunity is generated to explore details of the recognition process. The TF.D3h44 interface is characterised by a high number of polar interactions, including as may as 46 solvent molecules. Conformational changes upon complex formation are very small and almost exclusively limited to the reorientation of side-chains. The binding epitope is in complete agreement with earlier mutagenesis experiments. A revaluation of two other antibody-antigen pairs reported at similar resolutions, shows that all these complexes are very similar with respect to the solvation of the interface, the number of solvent positions conserved in the uncomplexed and complexed proteins and the number of water molecules expelled from the surface and replaced by hydrophilic atoms from the binding partner upon complex formation. A strategy is proposed on how to exploit this high resolution structural data to guide the affinity maturation of humanised antibodies.

Figure 1. Ribbon representation of TF (in red) in complex with D3h44 (light chain in light blue and heavy chain in dark blue). D3h44 recognizes a binding epitope located in the C-terminal FNIII domain of the ectodomain of TF. The b-strands of the C-terminal FNIII domain of TF are labeled as established for the topologically similar C2-type immunoglobulins.[34 and 35] This figure and all following model illustrations have been prepared with program MOLMOL.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB code is shown on the right.
