Protein superantigen properties

The binding site of protein Fv with human immunoglobulin VH3 + was characterized by Silverman et al. [22], They demonstrated that the superantigen properties of protein Fv and those of the bacterial protein A involve binding interactions with overlapping sites in the VH3 domain. This indicated that self... 

The staphylococcal and streptococcal toxins with superantigen-like properties are 23- to 29-kilodalton (kd) proteins (referred to here as pyrogenic toxins) that can be categorized into three distinct amino acid-sequence homology groups2 ...
