We have now developed human neutralizing monoclonal antibodies against the human IL-13 receptor alpha1 subunit that prevent activation of the receptor complex by both IL-4 and IL-13. We describe the crystal structures of the Fab fragment of antibody 10G5H6 alone and in complex with the ectodomain 3 (D3) of the IL-13Ralpha1. Although the structure showed significant domain swapping within a D3 dimer we showed that Arg230, Phe233, Tyr250, Gln252 and Leu293 in each D3 monomer and Ser32, Asn102, and Trp103 in 10G5H6 Fab are the key interacting residues at the interface of the D3:10G5H6 Fab complex. One of the most striking contacts is the insertion of the ligand-contacting residue Leu293 of D3 into a deep pocket on the surface of 10G5H6 Fab and this appears to be a central determinant of the high binding affinity and neutralizing activity of the antibody.
