Abstract
|
 |
|
To study the role of hydrogen bonding via interfacial water molecules in
protein-protein interactions, we examined the interaction between hen egg white
lysozyme (HEL) and its HyHEL-10 variable domain fragment (Fv) antibody. We
constructed three antibody mutants (l-Y50F, l-S91A, and l-S93A) and investigated
the interactions between the mutant Fvs and HEL. Isothermal titration
calorimetry indicated that the mutations significantly decreased the negative
enthalpy change (8-25 kJ mol(-1)), despite some offset by a favorable entropy
change. X-ray crystallography demonstrated that the complexes had nearly
identical structures, including the positions of the interfacial water
molecules. Taken together, the isothermal titration calorimetric and x-ray
crystallographic results indicate that hydrogen bonding via interfacial water
enthalpically contributes to the Fv-HEL interaction despite the partial offset
because of entropy loss, suggesting that hydrogen bonding stiffens the
antigen-antibody complex.
