The Fv fragment of the monoclonal antibody D1.3 was expressed in bacteria. Standard triple resonance techniques were used to obtain the NMR resonance assignments for 211 out of 215 backbone 15N/NH atoms for D1.3 Fv. Using these assignments, hydrogen exchange rates are measured for 82 amide hydrogen atoms in D1.3 Fv free and bound to hen egg-white lysozyme. Upon binding to antigen, exchange rates are decreased for residues throughout the Fv. Many of these residues are located remote from the site of interaction with the antigen. These changes are larger than previously observed for the antigen portion of the complex. Evidently, the beta-sheet structure of the Fv propagates the effects of binding more efficiently than the antigen. These effects are compared between the three different polypeptide chains that make up the complex. These data suggest that reduced dynamics are a general feature of antibody binding to antigen.
