Abstract excerpt
Neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed to the VP7 protein and neutralization-resistant mutants were used to analyse the antigenic structure of VP7 of human rotavirus serotype 1. Cross-neutralization tests using the MAbs and the resistant mutants indicated the existence of two functionally independent neutralization epitope regions (S1 and S2) on VP7. Region S1 corresponds to a single epitope domain of...
