Two major antigenic subgroups (designated A and B) have been described for human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV). Between and within the two main subgroups, there is antigenic variation in the attachment protein G. The variability of the G protein is known to be located in two hypervariable regions of the ectodomain. Most investigators have studied the gene segment coding the C-terminal end of the protein, and...
