Models of the three-dimensional structures of Fv domains of three antibodies specific to the pesticide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) have been derived from the sequence data by comparative modeling. The same binding site cavities were observed in all cases. The most important residue in antigen binding is tyrosine, which serves as a wall of cavity and putatively forms p-stacking interaction with aromatic moiety of the ligand. Another cavity wall is formed by hydrophobic residues. At the entrance of cavity a glutamate residue is located in 2 of 3 structures. Docking of 2,4-D and its analogs on the models was performed. On the basis of docking results an experimental cross-reactivity data were qualitatively explained. Using results of the modeling, mutation of glutamate to serine or lysine was suggested to eliminate electrostatic repulsion between antibody and ligand and to improve 2,4-D binding efficiency. Target mutations in the antibody binding site were checked on the model.
