Abstract excerpt
B cell epitopes of the measles virus fusion protein were mapped, by reacting sera from late convalescent donors with synthetic overlapping pentadecapeptides, segments covering the whole F protein sequence. Unselected individual sera recognized 7 to 20% of the total sequence. Cumulation of the binding patterns of 30 sera identified eight to 10 clusters of antibody-binding peptides spread over most of the sequence....
