Purification and characterization of GP90, one of the envelope glycoproteins of respiratory syncytial virus.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The large glycoprotein, GP90, of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) was purified by affinity chromatography using a monoclonal antibody. Hyperimmune rabbit antiserum directed specifically to the purified GP90 neutralized RSV to high titre but did not inhibit fusion of previously infected cells. 125I-labelled GP90 bound rapidly to HEp-2 cells in an unsaturable manner; binding was inhibited by the hyperimmune rabbit antiserum.

Monoclonal antibodies to the large glycoproteins of respiratory syncytial virus: possible evidence for several functional antigenic sites.
Employing different routes of immunization and different adjuvants, a large number of hybridomas were produced that secreted monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against the large envelope glycoprotein (GP90) and the fusion glycoprotein (GP70) of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). The antigenic specificity of the MAbs was established by immunoblot analysis and radioimmunoprecipitation. Three hybridomas...

Abstract One of the main cause of severe respiratory infection in infants and young children is respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). The disease can also occur in adults and elderly individuals and clinically not to be differentiated from other viral respiratory infection. The disease causes bronchiolitis, and sometimes pneumonia in new born and young children which requires hospital care. To di...

Nasopharyngeal swab samples from patients with an acute flu-like illness were evaluated for the presence of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) from October 1996 to March 1998. The relative frequency and seasonal distribution of RSV was assessed. In addition, the virus correlated with specific clinical signs and symptoms. During the study, 268 samples were collected from children under the a...
