[Study of rabbit IgG, modified with carboxycarbonic anhydride of diethylenetriaminopentacetic acid].
The affinity-purified by chromatography on immobilized antigen rabbit IgG was modified with mixed carboxycarbonic anhydride of DTPA which markedly alters the interaction of charged residues in the protein molecule. To study the correlation between the antigen binding activity and the conformational mobility of IgG, the reactivity of modified IgG towards conformational probes targeted at variable and constant IgG domains, was investigated. The antibody against CH2 domains of IgG, staphylococcal protein A and protein antigen ferritin were used as conformational probes. It was found that modification of IgG amino groups entails the global increase in conformational mobility involving the Fab fragments, CH2 and, probably, the CH3 domains of the Fc portion of IgG. Taking advantage of Fab fragments modification it was shown that two processes contribute to the global increase in the conformational mobility of IgG. These processes are: i) stimulation of segmental flexibility and, ii) increase in the mobility within the Fv domains of the Fab fragments.
