Fitness of Japanese encephalitis virus to Neuro‐2a cells is determined by interactions of the viral envelope protein with highly sulfated glycosaminoglycans on the cell surface

Abstract excerpt

Genetically different subpopulations were identified and purified from Japanese Encephalitis virus (JEV). Those with small plaques (SPs; <2 mm in diameter), derived from strains of T1P1, CJN, and CC27, were more competent than those with large plaques (LPs; >5 mm in diameter) when passaged in Neuro-2a cells. Differences in amino acids between SPs and LPs from each strain were shown in the viral envelope (E)...
