method:	ELISA

name:	Identification of immunodominant epitopes on the membrane protein of the severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus.
description:	E1 glycoprotein is also referred to as matrix glycoprotein or membrane glycoprotein. The sequence of the epitope was derived from the genomic sequence of the M protein of SARS described in Marra M. et al. Science 2003. In another experiment, New Zealand white rabbits were immunized intradermally with inactivated particles of the virus. Similar results were obtained by ELISA using antibodies from both immunized mice and rabbits.
