Localization of a Neutralizing Epitope on the Envelope Protein of Dengue Virus Type 2
1 Aug 1994
Abstract excerpt
Two neutralization-resistant variants of dengue virus type 2 were selected using the neutralizing monoclonal antibody G8D11. Virus N-GV4 was derived from the New Guinea C strain and virus P-GV3 from the PUO-218 strain. Both variants had an identical change at nucleotide 919 in the E gene, causing a substitution of glutamic acid for lysine at residue 307 in the E glycoprotein. The substitution abolished the...
