Abstract excerpt
The capsid protein encoding genes of five recent type Asia1 foot-and-mouth disease virus isolates, representative of three genotypes, were sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequences were aligned to each other and to two published sequences. The sequence differences suggested different antigenic properties of the isolates. One isolate was used to generate monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) which were analyzed for...
