Abstract excerpt
Sapovirus (SaV) is a nonenveloped RNA virus that causes acute gastroenteritis in humans. Although SaV is a clinically important pathogen in children, an effective vaccine is currently unavailable. The capsid protein VP1 of SaVs forms the outer shell of the virion and is highly diverse, as often seen in the virion-surface proteins of RNA viruses, creating an obstacle for vaccine development. We here report a...
