The interplay between binding energy and catalysis in the evolution of a catalytic antibody.
description:
The affinity of the catalytic antibody AZ-28 Fab for the epitope was determined by surface plasmon resonance. An antibody construct with the candidate germline variable regions bound the epitope with KD =670 nM. Introduction of somatic mutations into the germline heavy or light chain regions showed that there was an inverse correlation between the improved affinity during maturation and the catalytic rate for the oxy-cope rearrangement with residue Ser34 on the light chain being critical for the enhanced catalytic rate.
