Abstract:
:The three-dimensional structures of cyclosporin A complexed with cyclophilin A or Fab fragment of a monoclonal antibody were compared. In these two complexes conformations of the fragment D-alanine8-N-methylvaline11 in cyclosporin A were in a good agreement. In addition, cyclophilin A and the Fab fragment had related arrangements of the aromatic amino acids in their binding sites, implying that antibody independently utilizes similar structural themes for binding cyclosporin A as cyclophilin A.
