Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of complexes between an influenza hemagglutinin and Fab fragments of two different monoclonal antibodies.
Fab fragments from two different monoclonal antibodies (BH151 and HC45) which bind to the same antigenic region of the influenza hemagglutinin were crystallized as complexes with the hemagglutinin. The complexes crystallize in PEG 600, pH 6.0, and PEG 2000, pH 8.5, respectively. Both crystals belong to space group P321, with very similar unit cell dimensions.
