Crystals have been obtained of a chimaeric Fab' fragment that binds to a tumour-associated mucin-like glycoprotein TAG72. The Fab' fragment comprises the variable heavy and light-chain domains of a murine monoclonal antibody, B72.3, coupled to human gamma 4 and kappa constant regions. The crystals are orthorhombic and belong to the space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit cell dimensions a = 67.9 A, b = 94.2 A and c = 208.8 A. Diffraction to 2.6 A resolution was observed using synchrotron radiation. Despite the acute radiation sensitivity of the crystals a full native data set has been collected using the Weissenberg camera at the Photon Factory synchrotron. These data will be used for molecular replacement calculations in an attempt to elucidate the structure of this chimaeric Fab' fragment.

D007140 Immunoglobulin Fab Fragments Univalent antigen-binding fragments composed of one entire IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAIN and the amino terminal end of one of the IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS from the hinge region, linked to each other by disulfide bonds. Fab contains the IMMUNOGLOBULIN VARIABLE REGIONS, which are part of the antigen-binding site, and the first IMMUNOGLOBULIN CONSTANT REGIONS. This fragment can be obtained by digestion of immunoglobulins with the proteolytic enzyme PAPAIN.
