A central paradigm in immunology states that successful generation of high affinity antibodies necessitates an immense primary repertoire of antigen-combining sites.

It is therefore assumed that any particular D-encoded region surrounded by different V and J regions adopts a different conformation. We have solved the structure of two lysozyme-specific variable domains of heavy-chain antibodies isolated from two strictly unrelated dromedaries. These antibodies recombined identical D gene sequences to different V and J precursors with significant variance in their V(D)J junctions. Despite these large differences, the D-encoded loop segments adopt remarkably identical architectures, thus directing the antibodies toward identical epitopes. Furthermore, a striking convergent maturation process occurred in the V region, adapting both binders for their sub-nanomolar affinity association with lysozyme. Hence, on a structural level, humoral immunity may rely more on well developed maturation and selection systems than on the acquisition of large primary repertoires. | |||

Publication Abstract from PubMedA central paradigm in immunology states that successful generation of high affinity antibodies necessitates an immense primary repertoire of antigen-combining sites. Much of the diversity of this repertoire is provided by varying one antigen binding loop, created by inserting randomly a D (diversity) gene out of a small pool between the V and J genes. It is therefore assumed that any particular D-encoded region surrounded by different V and J regions adopts a different conformation. We have solved the structure of two lysozyme-specific variable domains of heavy-chain antibodies isolated from two strictly unrelated dromedaries. These antibodies recombined identical D gene sequences to different V and J precursors with significant variance in their V(D)J junctions. Despite these large differences, the D-encoded loop segments adopt remarkably identical architectures, thus directing the antibodies toward identical epitopes. Furthermore, a striking convergent maturation process occurred in the V region, adapting both binders for their sub-nanomolar affinity association with lysozyme. Hence, on a structural level, humoral immunity may rely more on well developed maturation and selection systems than on the acquisition of large primary repertoires.
