Crystal Structure Analysis of anti-HIV-1 Fab 447-52D in complex with V3 peptide
Overview
447-52D is a human monoclonal antibody isolated from a heterohybridoma derived from an HIV-1-infected individual. This antibody recognizes the hypervariable gp120 V3 loop, and neutralizes both X4 and R5 primary isolates, making it one of the most effective anti-V3 antibodies characterized to date. The crystal structure of the 447-52D Fab in complex with a 16-mer V3 peptide at 2.5 A resolution reveals that the peptide beta hairpin forms a three-stranded mixed beta sheet with complementarity determining region (CDR) H3, with most of the V3 side chains exposed to solvent. Sequence specificity is conferred through interaction of the type-II turn (residues GPGR) at the apex of the V3 hairpin with the base of CDR H3. This novel mode of peptide-antibody recognition enables the antibody to bind to many different V3 sequences where only the GPxR core epitope is absolutely required.
