'''Crystal Structure of the Fab fragment of a R310 antibody complexed with (R)-HNE-histidine adduct'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), a racemic mixture of 4R- and 4S-enantiomers, is, a major product of lipid peroxidation and is believed to be largely, responsible for the cytopathological effects observed during oxidative, stress. HNE reacts with histidine to form a stable HNE-histidine Michael, addition-type adduct possessing three chiral centers in the cyclic, hemiacetal structure. We have previously raised the mAbs, anti-R mAb 310, and anti-S mAb S412, that enantioselectively recognized the, R-HNE-histidine and R-HNE-histidine adducts, respectively, and, demonstrated the presence of both epitopes in vivo. In the present study, to further investigate the anti-HNE immune response, we analyzed the, variable genes and primary structure of these Abs and found that the, sequence of R310 was highly homologous to anti-DNA autoantibodies, the, hallmark of systemic lupus erythematosus. An x-ray crystallographic, analysis of the R310 Fab fragment showed that the R-HNE-histidine adduct, binds to a hydrophobic pocket in the antigen-binding site. Despite the, structural identity to the anti-DNA autoantibodies, however, R310 showed, only a slight crossreactivity with the native double-stranded DNA, whereas, the Ab immunoreactivity was dramatically enhanced by the treatment of the, DNA with 4-oxo-2-nonenal (ONE), an analog of HNE. Moreover, the, 7-(2-oxo-heptyl)-substituted 1,N2-etheno-type ONE-2'-deoxynucleoside, adducts were identified as alternative epitopes of R310. Molecular mimicry, between the R-HNE-histidine configurational isomers and the ONE-DNA base, adducts is proposed for the dual crossreactivity.
