Conformational fluctuations within scFv antibodies are characterized by a novel perturbation-response decomposition of molecular dynamics trajectories. Both perturbation and response profiles are stratified into stabilizing and destabilizing conditions. The linker between the VH and VL domains exhibits the dominant dynamical response by being coupled to nearly the entire protein, responding to both stabilizing and destabilizing perturbations. Perturbations within complementarity-determining regions (CDR) induce rich behavior in dynamic response. Among many effects, stabilizing any CDR loop in the VH domain triggers a destabilizing response in all CDR loops in the VL domain and vice versa. Destabilizing residues within the VL domain are likely to stabilize all CDR loops in the VH domain, and, when these residues are not buried, the CDR loops in the VL domain are also likely to be stabilized. These effects, described by shifts in normal mode characteristics, initiate a propensity for dynamic allostery with possible functional implications in bispecific antibodies.
