Identification of hepatitis A virus mimotopes by phage display, antigenicity and immunogenicity.
description:
The peptide has limited sequence homology to hepatitis A virus VP3 capsid protein.
The epitope was identified from one round of immunoselection with serum from a convalescent viral hepatitis A patient used on a phage display library of random nonapeptides fused to the N-terminus of the phage pIII capsid protein. The epitope was recognized by 17 of 28 sera from convalescent viral hepatitis A patients and one serum sample from a donor immunized with HAVRIX hepatitis A vaccine. The epitope had discontinuous sequence similarity to residues 66-80 (FNASDSVGQQIKVIP) and residues 117-123 (FDFQVFP) of VP3 capsid protein from HAV (strain HM-175).
