Abstract excerpt
Peptides were synthesized, that correspond to cleaved and trimmed carboxyl termini of the F2 polypeptide regions of fusion (F) protein precursors (F0 proteins) in four different strains of Newcastle disease virus (NDV). These peptides differed only within the four carboxyl-terminal residues and represent F2 polypeptides of virulent (AV), low-virulence (EG) and avirulent (V4 and WA) pathotypes of NDV. Polyclonal...
