(a) Kdo-(2→4)-5,6-dehydro-Kdo binds in an electropositive pocket of the S25-2 combining site. (b) Interactions (green dashes) of S25-2 with Kdo-(2→4)-5,6-dehydro-Kdo. The terminal Kdo (bottom) makes a series of interactions that are conserved in other S25-2 structures (Brooks et al., 2008 ; Nguyen et al., 2003 ), while the 7-OH group of 5,6-dehydro-Kdo (top) forms a single hydrogen bond to residue Asn53 in the heavy chain. Amino-acid residues in the structure are numbered according to the Kabat numbering scheme for antibodies (Kabat et al., 1983 ); (H) refers to residues on the heavy chain and (L) refers to residues on the light chain. |
