  ABSTRACT  
 
A complete understanding of antibody-antigen association and specificity requires the stereochemical description of both antigen and antibody before and upon complex formation. The structural mechanism involved in the binding of the IgG1 monoclonal antibody E8 to its highly charged protein antigen horse cytochrome c (cyt c) is revealed by crystallographic structures of the antigen-binding fragment (Fab) of E8 bound to cyt c (FabE8-cytc), determined to 1.8 A resolution, and of uncomplexed Fab E8 (FabE8), determined to 2.26 A resolution. E8 antibody binds to three major discontiguous segments (33 to 39; 56 to 66; 96 to 104), and two minor sites on cyt c opposite to the exposed haem edge. Crystallographic definition of the E8 epitope complements and extends biochemical mapping and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance with hydrogen-deuterium exchange studies. These combined results demonstrate that antibody-induced stabilization of secondary structural elements within the antigen can propagate locally to adjacent residues outside the epitope. Pre-existing shape complementarity at the FabE8-cytc interface is enhanced by 48 bound water molecules, and by local movements of up to 4.2 A for E8 antibody and 8.9 A for cyt c. Glu62, Asn103 and the C-terminal Glu104 of cyt c adjust to fit the pre-formed VL "hill" and VH "valley" shape of the grooved E8 paratope. All six E8 complementarity determining regions (CDRs) contact the antigen, with CDR L1 forming 46% of the total atomic contacts, and CDRs L1 (29%) and H3 (20%) contributing the highest percentage of the total surface area of E8 buried by cyt c (550 A2). The E8 antibody covers 534 A2 of the cyt c surface. The formation of five ion pairs between E8 and flexible cyt c residues Lys60, Glu62 and Glu104 suggests the importance of mobile regions and electrostatic interactions in providing the exquisite specificity needed for recognition of this extremely conserved protein antigen. The highly homologous VL domains of E8 and anti-lysozyme antibody D1. 3 achieve their distinct antigen-binding specificities by expanding the impact of their limited sequence differences through the recruitment of different sets of conserved residues and distinctly different CDR L3 conformations.

Highlighted are the three major discontiguous segments of E8 epitope on cyt c (33 to 39, 56 to 66 and 96 to 104 in red) and the six E8 CDRs (L1 and H1, red; L2 and H2, yellow; L3 and H3, green). b, Ribbon representation of the FabE8 (pink) and FabE8-cyt c (L, white; H, yellow; cyt c, orange) structures with V-domains superimposed. The elbow angles of the two structures differ by 6°. c, Cyt c (orange) bound to CDR-H3 of FabE8-cyt c (yellow), with CDR-H3 of D1.3Fv-HEL (purple) superimposed. The tip of E8 H3 (top) complements the second 30 s type II b-turn (35 to 38) of cyt c. E8 Phe91L and Trp96L of L3 (white) and Tyr33H1 (yellow) neighbour E8 H3. The base of E8 H3 is in the extended conformation and the carboxylate group of Asp105H3[101] hydrogen bonds with the Trp107H[103] FR4 and Tyr36L FR2 side-chains. In the D1.3 antibody (purple), the base of H3 is "kinked" at position [101]. The Asp side-chain at this position is flipped 180° with respect to E8 Asp105H3[101] and ion pairs with ArgH3[94] (equivalent position Gly98H in E8). Oxygen and nitrogen atoms are shown as red and blue spheres, respectively and hydrogen bonds as yellow dotted lines.

Figure 3. Stereo views of buried surface areas and residues of the FabE8-cyt c (a) paratope with 48 interface water molecules, and (b) E8 epitope. Views are 90° fromFigure 1a. Water molecules (green spheres) form a collar around the buried surface areas of E8 antibody (pink mesh) and cyt c (blue mesh). C^a traces of E8 V[L] are shown in white, V[H] in yellow and cyt c in orange. Side-chains in the E8 paratope are displayed and labelled with CDRs L1 and H1 in red, L2 and H2 in yellow and L3 and H3 in green. The E8 epitope consists of three major discontiguous segments (33 to 39; 56 to 66 and 96 to 104) shown with magenta side-chains and two minor sites composed of the N-terminal acetyl group (Ac), Val3 (top) and Lys22 (left) (with white side-chains and yellow labels) at the periphery. Arg38 and Tyr74 (white side-chains and green labels) lie outside the E8 epitope. Oxygen and nitrogen atoms are shown as red and blue spheres, respectively.

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 codes are shown on the right.
