Mapping of epitopes and structural analysis of antigenic sites in the nucleoprotein of rabies virus.
|
| description: |
Epitope was deduced from epitope mapping studies of overlapping 8 mers using a panel of mAbs raised against antigenic sites I and IV.
The reactivity of mAb 12-2 toward wild-type and chimeric N-proteins from Hep-Flury and RC-HL strains of rabies virus was demonstrated. mAb 12-2, directed against antigenic site I, was equally reactive toward wild-type and chimeric N-protein from both strains of rabies. Conversely, the reactivity of mAb 8-1 (directed against antigenic site IV) indicates that it requires the N-terminus of the RC-HL strain for efficient binding.
