The L1CAM antibody A10-A3 efficiently reduces tumor growth in a nude mouse model. Here, we describe the crystal structure of the Fab fragment of A10-A3 determined at 2.0 angstrom resolution. The A10-A3 antibody H3 loop reveals a characteristic arrangement of exposed aromatic residues that may play an important role in antigen binding. A structure model of the complex between L1CAM Ig1-4 and A10-A3 Fab indicates that the Fab binds to three small loops outside Ig1 and a residue between Ig1 and Ig2, consistent with an epitope mapping result. The data presented here should contribute to the design of high-affinity antibody for therapeutic purposes as well as to the understanding of neural cell remodeling and cancer progression mechanism mediated by L1CAM.
