Structural analysis of a protective epitope of the Francisella tularensis O-polysaccharide.
description:
The X-ray crystal structure of the unliganded epitope-specific Fab Ab52 was determined to 2.1 Å by molecular replacement [PBD 3UJT]. An antibody−epitope (two tetrasaccharide repeats, ABCDA′B′C′D') complex was derived using molecular docking. The docked complex shows a V-shaped epitope encompassing six of the eight sugar residues, alpha-D-GalpNAcAN(1→4)-alpha-D-GalpNAcAN(1→3)-beta-D-QuipNAc(1→2)-beta-D-Quip4NFm-(1→4)-alpha-D-GalpNAcAN(1→4)-alpha-D-GalpNAcAN (BCDA′B′C′), with the central disaccharide, at the point of the V, buried in a pocket deep inside the center of the floor of a large canyon-shaped Ab52 binding site.
