Pathogenic measles viruses cannot evolve to bypass vaccine-induced neutralizing antibodies

2020-10-23

Abstract excerpt

After centuries of pestilence and decades of global vaccination, measles serotypes capable of evading vaccine-induced immunity have not emerged. Here, by systematically building mutations into the H-glycoprotein of an attenuated measles strain and assaying for serum neutralization, we show that virus evolution is severely constrained by the existence of numerous codominant H-glycoprotein antigenic sites, some crit...
