Abstract excerpt
Epitopes recognized by three G1-specific and two G2-specific neutralizing monoclonal antibodies to Hantaan virus were mapped by sequence analyses of the complete M genome segments of neutralization escape variant viruses. For each variant, we detected nucleotide sequence substitutions which resulted in a single amino acid change in either the G1 or G2 protein. Serological properties of the variant viruses...
