Abstract excerpt
A monoclonal antibody (mAb 7J6) neutralizing poliovirus type 2 (PV2) and poliovirus type 1 (PV1) was obtained after immunization of BALB/c mice with infectious PV2, strain MEF-1. Preincubation of mAb 7J6 with PV1 inhibited its binding to PV2 and vice versa. Neutralization-resistant variants of PV2 and PV1 were selected. Nucleotide sequencing of the RNAs of some variants revealed mutations in the loop of amino...
