Initial epitope mapping of mAb 51 and 53 by Western blot analysis.

<p>(A) C-terminal truncated fragments of VP1 protein (A–H), with peptide-spanning regions depicted. (B) Expression of protein fragments determined with mAb against GST protein. Western blot results indicated interaction of both mAb 51 and 53 with fragment F–H, implying the location of the epitope within amino acids 208–222.
