Output of analyis of contact residues and interfacial waters
AppA displays the 3D rendition of the antibody drug Lucentis (generic name: ranibizumab, PDB code: 1CZ8; heavy chain: (chain H, blue color); light chain: (chain L, violet color)) with the antigen VEGF (chain W, salmon color) and interfacial waters (red balls) using JSMol (https://jmol.sourceforge.net/). The contact residues of Lucentis and VEGF are highlighted in sticks.
AppA displays the table of contact residues of heavy chain of the antibody drug Lucentis (generic name: ranibizumab, PDB code: 1CZ8) and the antigen VEGF , as well as the number of hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic, van der Waals and ionic interactions that each contact residue is involved in, and their CDR regions, secondary structure and solvent accessibility of contact residues are also shown. In addition to the table, the detailed visualization of contact atoms and interfacial water molecules is displayed using the "Highlight Contact Residues" and "Zoom In" functions of AppA. The detailed hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic, van der Waals and ionic interactions of each contact residue of heavy chain are shown when users click on each contact residue in the table.

4. Output of 3D structure comparison of contact residues
AppA displays the 3D rendition of the structural superimposition of contact residues of heavy chains (H) and light chains (L) of Lucentis (PDB code: 1CZ8) and Avastin (PDB code: 1BJ1) and their interfacial waters using JSMol.
AppA displays the matched contact residues of heavy chains (H) and light chains (L) of Lucentis (PDB code: 1CZ8) and Avastin (PDB code: 1BJ1) for the structure comparison, and the identical matched residues highlighted in red color.
5. Output of browsing antibody-antigen structures from PDB
AppA browses existing antibody-antigen structures from the PDB using a cutoff of number of hydrogen bonds of 15. The analysis and visualization of contact residues and interfacial waters of each antibody-antigen complex are shown when users click on its PDB code in the “PDB code” column.
6. Mouse controls for AppA visualization
By moving the mouse pointer over any atom in the visualization window of AppA, the corresponding atom name is shown. As seen in the above figure, the name of main chain atom N of THR53 from heavy chain of the antibody drug Lucentis is displayed.
To measure the distance between two atoms, please double click (the left mouse button) on the first atom, and then move the mouse pointer to the second atom. The distance will be shown on a pink line connecting these two atoms. As seen in the above figure, the distance between the main chain atom N of THR53 from heavy chain of the antibody drug Lucentis and the sidechain atom OE1 of GLN89 from antigen VEGF is 2.86Å.
To move the antibody-antigen structure/ contact residues in the visualization window of AppA, please use: CTRL + click and hold the right mouse button. 7.
