IGE FV SPE7 COMPLEXED WITH A RECOMBINANT THIOREDOXIN
Overview
A single antibody was shown to adopt different binding-site conformations, and thereby bind unrelated antigens. Analysis by both x-ray, crystallography and pre-steady-state kinetics revealed an equilibrium, between different preexisting isomers, one of which possessed a, promiscuous, low-affinity binding site for aromatic ligands, including the, immunizing hapten. A subsequent induced-fit isomerization led to, high-affinity complexes with a deep and narrow binding site. A protein, antigen identified by repertoire selection made use of an unrelated, antibody isomer with a wide, shallow binding site. Conformational, diversity, whereby one sequence adopts multiple structures and multiple, functions, can increase the effective size of the antibody repertoire but, may also lead to autoimmunity and allergy.
