description:	The low reactivity of anti-Re-4 antisera to A/Chicken/Huadong/4/2008 strain was reverted in a mutant virus where the epitope residues were mutated to residues G and K corresponding to the residues present in the A/Chicken/Shanxi/2/2006 (Re-4) strain, implying these residues are involved in the antisera reactivity to its immunizing strain.
