Antibody CDR amino acids underlying the functionality of antibody repertoires in recognizing diverse protein antigens

Abstract excerpt

Antibodies recognize protein antigens with exquisite specificity in a complex aqueous environment, where interfacial waters are an integral part of the antibody-protein complex interfaces. In this work, we elucidate, with computational analyses, the principles governing the antibodies' specificity and affinity towards their cognate protein antigens in the presence of explicit interfacial waters. Experimentally,...
