Although allosteric effector antibodies are used widely as modulators of receptors and enzymes, experimental analysis of their mechanism remains highly challenging. Here, we investigate the molecular mechanisms of allosteric and non-allosteric effector antibodies in an experimentally tractable system, consisting of single-domain antibodies (nanobodies) that target the model enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) from Escherichia coli. A panel of thirty-five nanobodies was isolated using several strategies to increase nanobody diversity. The nanobodies exhibit a variety of effector properties, including partial inhibition, strong inhibition and stimulation of DHFR activity. Despite these diverse effector properties, chemical shift perturbation NMR epitope mapping identified only two epitope regions: epitope alpha is a new allosteric site that is over 10A from the active site, while epitope beta is located in the region of the Met20 loop. The structural basis for DHFR allosteric inhibition or activation upon nanobody binding to the alpha epitope was examined by solving the crystal structures of DHFR in complex with Nb113 (an allosteric inhibitor) and Nb179 (an allosteric activator). The structures suggest roles for conformational constraint and altered protein dynamics, but not epitope distortion, in the observed allosteric effects. The crystal structure of a beta epitope region binder (ca1698) in complex with DHFR is also reported. Although CDR3 of ca1698 occupies the substrate binding site, ca1698 displays linear mixed inhibition kinetics instead of simple competitive inhibition kinetics. Two mechanisms are proposed to account for this apparent anomaly. Evidence for structural convergence of ca1698 and Nb216 during affinity maturation is also presented. | |||
