name:
Three camelid VHH domains in complex with porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase. Inhibition and versatility of binding topology.
description:
The epitope residues were calculated as the antigen residues interacting with the antibody at 4 Å
atomic distance based on the structure [PDB: 1KXT].
The epitope of AMB7 VHH on porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase was determined from the crystal structure of the complex, solved by molecular replacement. AMB7 VHH binds the antigen outside the catalytic site and inhibits only partially the amylase activity. The crystal contains three complexes in the asymmetric unit.
