description:
The crystal structure of Fab 2G12 bound to the epitope was determined. The asymmetric unit contains two Fab molecules that form a tightly packed dimer via a three-dimensional swap of their VH domains. This dimeric assembly is not observed in over 250 Fab structures deposited in the Protein Data Bank.
