Abstract excerpt
A double avirulent mutant was isolated from the SADBern strain of rabies virus by two successive selection steps using neutralizing anti-glycoprotein monoclonal antibodies. Both mutations affect the triplet coding for amino acid 333 of the glycoprotein. The resulting virus, called SAG2, has a glutamate coded by GAA in position 333 instead of an arginine. This new codon differs by two nucleotides from all the...
