Physical Properties of Antigens-Antibody Binding
Epitope - part of the antigen bound by Ab
Antigen is usually carbohydrate or protein
• Lock and Key concept
• Variety of structures and sizes recognized by Ab’s
• Affinity vs Avidity - terms describing binding strength of an antibody for its epitope
![Page 11: Figures replaced or skipped for Ch 2 Figure 2.3 - Enzyme digestion of Ab’s Flow cytometry - Fig 2.13 Monoclonal Ab Fig 2.12 was replaced.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d245503460f949fa803/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Epitopes
• Epitope (antigenic determinant) is the part of the antigen bound by Ab
• Most antigens have multiple epitopes (multivalent)
• Usually carbohydrate or peptide.Fig. 2.9

Antibody-antigen interaction• Non-covalent binding:
– Electrostatic– Hydrogen bonds– Van der Waals force– Hydrophobic forces
• Affinity: Strength of interaction between epitope and one antigen-binding site
• Avidity: Strength of the sum of interactions between antibody and antigen

• Antivenin Crotalidae Polyvalent (ACP) - horse serum based antivenom - gold standard for snake bites but can cause “serum sickness”
• New types of antitoxins– Fragmented antivenin (CroFab) where only the Fab fragment (sheep-
based) is used
– Humanized antibodies derived from mouse sources

The Gene Rearrangement Concept
• Germline configuration
• Gene segments need to be reassembled for expression
• Sequentially arrayed
• Occurs in the B-cells precursors in the bone marrow (soma)
• A source of diversity BEFORE exposure to antigen

Mechanism of Recombination
• Recombination signal sequences (RSSs) direct recombination- V and J (L chain)- V D J (H chain)
• RSS types consist of:- nonamer (9 base pairs)
- heptamer (7 base pairs)- Spacer- Two types: [7-12-9], [7-23-9]
• RSS features:- recognition sites for recombination enzymes- recombination occurs in the correct order
(12/23 rule)
![Page 37: Figures replaced or skipped for Ch 2 Figure 2.3 - Enzyme digestion of Ab’s Flow cytometry - Fig 2.13 Monoclonal Ab Fig 2.12 was replaced.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d245503460f949fa803/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

• V(D)J recombinase: all the protein components that mediate the recombination steps
• RAG complex: Recombination Activating Genes (RAG-1 and RAG-2) encode RAG proteins only made in lymphocytes
• Recombination only occurs through two different RSS bound by two RAG complexes (12/23 rule)
• DNA cleavage occurs to form a single stranded hairpin and a break at the heptamer sequences
• Enzymes that cut and repair the break introduce Junctional Diversity

Figure 2-18 part 2 of 3Junctional Diversity
• Nucleotides introduced at recombination break in the coding joint corresponding to CDR3 of light and heavy chains
- V and J of the light chain- (D and J) or (V and DJ) of the heavy chain
• P nucleotides generate short palindromic sequences
• N nucleotides are added randomly - these are not encoded
• Junctional Diversity contributes 3 x107 to overall diversity!

Generation of BCR (IgD and IgM)
• Rearrangement of VDJ of the heavy chain brings the gene’s promoter closer to C and C
• Both IgD and IgM are expressed simultaneously on the the surface of the B cell as BCR - ONLY isotypes to do this
• Alternative splicing of the primary transcript RNA generates IgD and IgM
• Naïve B cells are early stage B cells that have yet to see antigen and produce IgD and IgM

Principle of Single Antigen Specificity
• Each B cell contains two copies of the Ig locus (Maternal and Paternal copies)
• Only one is allowed to successfully rearrange - Allelic Exclusion
• All Igs on the surface of a single B cell have identical specificity and differ only in their constant region
• Result: B cell monospecificity means that a response to a pathogen can be very specific

Peripheral blood from healthy patient is made up of mostly neutrophils
Peripheral blood from a leukemia patient has an abnormally high proportion of B-cells.
Cancer cells are derived from one clonal line of B-cell which has V and C chains rearranged next to each other

Generation of B cell diversity in Ig’s before Antigen Encounter
1. Random combination of V and J (L chain) and V, D, J (H chain) regions
2. Junctional diversity caused by the addition of P and N nucleotides
3. Combinatorial association of Light and Heavy chains(each functional light chain is found associated with a different functional heavy chain and vice versa)

Processes occurring after B cells encounter antigen
• Processing of BCR versus Antibody1. Plasma cells switch to secreted Ab2. Difference occurs in the c-terminus of the heavy chain3. Primary transcript RNA is alternatively processed to
yield transmembrane or secreted Ig’s
• Somatic Hypermutation1. Point mutations introduced to V regions2. 106 times higher mutation rate3. Usually targets the CDR
• Affinity maturation - mutant Ig molecules with higher affinity are more likely to bind antigen and their B cells are preferentially selected
• Isotype switching

Isotype switching
1. IgM is the first Ab that is secreted in the IR
2. IgM is pentameric and each H chain can bind complement proteins
3. Isotypes with better effector functions are produced by activated B cells
4. Rearrangement of DNA using SWITCH regions - all C genes preceded by switch sequence (except - start from the gene and any other C gene (plus sequential)
5. Regulated by cytokines secreted by T cells

Does Isotype Switching occur in one B cell?
1. Activated B cell resides in the Germinal Center -some individuals will mature directly into
plasma cells
2. Some B cells in the germinal center divide and undergo hypermutation and/or isotype switching
3. After this stage they cannot divide and the higher affinity ones are selected
4. These cells can mature to plasma cells
5. End result: The B cell makes a different antibody isotype but with the same specificity
