===CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE MAJOR HORSE ALLERGEN EQU C 1===

~~==Overview==~~

<!--

~~The three~~-~~dimensional structure of the major horse allergen Equ c 1 has been determined at 2.3 A resolution by x~~-~~ray crystallography. Equ c 1 displays the typical fold of lipocalins, a beta-barrel flanked by a C-terminal alpha-helix.~~ The ~~space between the two beta-sheets of the barrel defines an internal cavity that could serve~~, ~~as in other lipocalins~~, ~~for~~ the ~~binding and transport of small hydrophobic ligands. Equ c 1 crystallizes in a novel dimeric form, which is distinct from that observed in other lipocalin dimers and corresponds~~ to the ~~functional form of the allergen~~. Binding studies of point mutants of the allergen with specific monoclonal antibodies raised in mouse and IgE serum from horse allergic patients allowed to identify putative B cell antigenic determinants. ~~In addition~~, ~~total inhibition of IgE serum recognition by a single specific monoclonal antibody revealed the restricted nature of the IgE binding target on~~ the ~~molecular surface of Equ c 1~~.
