Alanine-scanning mutations in domain 4 of anthrax toxin protective antigen reveal residues important for binding to the cellular receptor and to a neutralizing monoclonal antibody.
|
| description: |
These residues are located at the small loop of domain 4 of PA, a region that had been involved in the recognition by neutralizing antibodies.
The neutralizing mAb 14B7 was analyzed in its affinity to WT PA and alanine mutants to study the contribution of individual residues to binding. The residues listed were detrimental to the binding affinity by factors ranging from >10,000- to 18-fold. Affinity was also analyzed by sedimentation equilibrium , with similar results (KD <6nM for WT PA).
