The stalk domain of influenza virus envelope glycoprotein hemagglutinin (HA) constitutes the axis connecting the head and transmembrane domains, and plays pivotal roles in conformational rearrangements of HA for virus infection. Here we characterized molecular interactions between the anti-HA stalk neutralization antibody F11 and influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 HA to understand the structural basis of the actions and modifications of this antibody. In silico structural analyses using a model of the trimeric HA ectodomain indicated that the F11 Fab fragment has physicochemical properties, allowing it to crosslink two HA monomers by binding to a region near the proteolytic cleavage site of the stalk domain. Interestingly, the F11 binding allosterically caused a marked suppression of the structural dynamics of the HA cleavage loop and flanking regions. Structure-guided mutagenesis of the F11 antibody revealed a critical residue in the F11 light chain for the F11-mediated neutralization. Finally, the mutagenesis led to identification of a unique F11 derivative that can neutralize both F11-sensitive and F11-resistant A(H1N1)pdm09 viruses. These results raise the possibility that F11 sterically and physically disturbs proteolytic cleavage of HA for the ordered conformational rearrangements and suggest that in silico guiding experiments can be useful to create anti-HA stalk antibodies with new phenotypes.
