Pre-resonance Raman spectroscopy was used to study the interactions of the nitro groups of dinitrophenyl haptens with three dinitrophenyl-binding antibody fragments: M315 Fv, M460 Fab' and X25 Fab'. The observed changes in frequency of modes associated with the nitro moieties are compared with solvent-induced changes for the model hapten 2,4-dinitroaniline. These comparisons demonstrate a specific interaction via the H2N--C--C--2-NO2 and 4-NO2 groups with the protein. The interaction with the 4-NO2 group appears to be absent for epsilon-N-2,4-dinitrophenyl-L-lysine bound to M315 Fv fragment in contrast with either 2,4-dinitrophenylaspartate or 2,4-dinitrophenylglycine bound to M315 Fv fragment, despite the much tighter binding of the lysine derivative. The implications of this for M315 Fv fragment in terms of the antibody specificity are discussed. Comparisons of the effect of binding to M460 Fab' and X25 Fab' fragments also revealed significant differences in the shifts of the nitro group vibrations of 2,4-dinitrophenyl-lysine and 2,4-dinitroaniline.
