Monoclonal Antibodies That Bind to Common Epitopes on the Dengue Virus Type 2 Nonstructural-1 and Envelope Glycoproteins Display Weak Neutralizing Activity and Differentiated Responses to Virulent Strains: Implications for Pathogenesis and Vaccines

Abstract excerpt

The abilities of monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) that bind to defined sequential epitopes on the dengue virus (DENV) nonstructural-1 (NS1) glycoproteins to cross-react with epitopes on the DENV envelope (E) glycoproteins were investigated. In this study, some of these MAbs cross-reacted with the DENV type 2 (DENV-2) E glycoprotein and with synthetic peptides representing X-ray crystallographically confirmed...
