Abstract excerpt
Impact of amino acid sequence variation on the antigenic properties of the surface hepatitis B virus antigen HBsAg was studied. Eleven recombinant HBsAg variants of wild (adr, ayw2, adw2, adw4, aywl, adw2) and vaccine escape (adw2 T126S, adw2 Q129L, adw2 Q129R, adw2 T143K, adw2 Q145R, aywl Q145A) were obtained. All the recombinant antigens were tested on a panel of 43 monoclonal antibodies (MAb) specific to...
