The previously solved partial structure of this Fabat a resolution of 2.9 Á (Rose et al., 1990) was used as an initial model for refinement against the high-resolution data. The complex with hapten has been modeledby docking the small-molecule crystal structure of phenylarsonic acid into the structure of the native Fab on the basis of a low-resolution electron density map of the complex. In this model, residue Arg-96 in the light chain and residues Asn-35, Trp-47, and Ser-99 in the heavy chain contact the arsonate moiety of the hapten; an additional bond is found between the arsonate group and a tightly bound water molecule. The phenyl moiety of the hapten packs against two tyrosine side chains at positions 50 and 106 in the heavy chain. Residue Arg-96 inthe light chain hadbeen implicated as involved in hapten binding on the basis of previous experiments, and indeed, this residue appears to play a crucial role in this model. Experiments employing site-directed mutagenesis directly support this conclusion. The heavy-chain complementarity-determining regions have novel conformations not previously observed in immunoglobulins except for the recently solved anti-^-azophenylarsonate Fab R19. 9 (Lascombe et al., 1989).
