Subgroup specific protection of mice from respiratory syncytial virus infection with peptides encompassing the amino acid region 174-187 from the G glycoprotein: the role of cysteinyl residues in protection.
description:
This epitope is conserved in strain Long of RSV subgroup A and in strain 8/60 of RSV subgroup B.
Epitope immunization protected mice from infection with either strain Long of RSV subgroup A or strain 8/80 of RSV subgroup B. Combinations of cysteine residues C173, C176, C182, and C186 greatly influenced protective activities.
