Abstract excerpt
To assess the role of each envelope-associated protein (i.e., ORFs 2-6 products) of type 2 PRRSV in cross neutralization mediated by antibody, chimeric mutants were generated by replacing ORFs of a VR2332-based infectious clone with those of JA142, SDSU73, PRRS124, or 2M11715 that are genetically and antigenically distinct from VR2332 and two-way neutralization assays were performed on those mutants using VR2332,...
