(tryptophan-33 and tyrosine-101) and salt bridging with the glu-50 on the heavy chain of the antibody. Studies show that other bacterial strains having a cysteine, glycine, glutamic acid, or threonine in place of Lys-253 demonstrate resistance to the bactericidal effects of H6831 and also less binding affinity for the antibody Fab fragment (citation needed). This bolsters how important the Lys-253 is in the binding between the OspB protein and the antibody. After the complex is formed and the first four beta strands are cleaved off, a relic of this loss is a single <scene name='G14secL04Tpc3/Freely_floating_beta_strand/2'>freely floating beta strand</scene> on the N-terminus of the protein. This beta strand plays a role in the formation of dimers of OspB∙H6831 complex(citation). Although the second loop bearing the lysine is very important, the other loops certainly contribute to the bonding between OspB and the antibody fab fragment.
