Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) genotype 4 was originally identified in China. Its neutralization antigenic epitopes have not been characterized. Recently, we identified a neutralizing monoclonal antibody (mAb) 1G10, which was generated following immunization of mice with p166Chn, a recombinant protein comprising 464-629 amino acids (aa) of the HEV genotype 4 capsid protein. In this study, a panel of 22 N- and/or...
