| description: |
The epitope residues were calculated from [PDB: 4NBY] as the antigen residues at 4Å
atomic distance from the antibody. Calculated contact residues are I74, P88, A89, N90, T91, Y103, R106, F107, Y109, L110, H111, D112, and R159 in [PDB: 4NC1].
The epitope of A20.1 VHH on the TcdA-A2 RBD fragment (residues 2456-2710) was determined from the crystal structure of the ternary complex of A20.1 and A26.8H6 VHHs bound to TcdA-A2, solved by molecular replacement. There are two molecules each of A20.1 VHH (chains C and D), A26.8H6 VHH (chains E and F) and TcdA-A2 (chains A and B) in the asymmetric unit. The A20.1 VHH binds to epitope 2 near the N-terminal end of TcdA-A2 rather than epitope 1 in the C-terminal part, although binding of A26.8H6 does not appear to sterically hinder binding to epitope 1.
