| Abstract | Three human rotavirus (HRV) VP4 serotypes and one subtype have been described on the basis of a fourfold or an eightfold-or-greater difference in neutralization titer when tested with hyperimmune antisera to recombinant VP4 or VP8* (serotypes P1A, P1B, P2, and P3). To start to analyze the antigenic basis underlying serotype specificity, we produced a library of 13 VP4-specific neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (NMAbs) to two HRVs, the serotype P1A strain Wa and the serotype P2 strain ST3, and characterized the reactivity of these NMAbs with a panel of serotypically diverse HRV strains by neutralization assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). We characterized the serotypic specificity of the NMAbs by using a fourfold or an eightfold-or-greater difference in titer against the homologous (i.e., immunogen) and heterologous strains as a criterion for serotype. Some ST3-derived NMAbs reacted specifically with serotype P2 HRVs by ELISA and/or neutralization assay, while some Wa-derived NMAbs reacted specifically by ELISA and/or neutralization assay with some or all serotype P1A HRVs. Other Wa- and ST3-derived NMAbs reacted with some or all serotype P1A and P2 HRV strains by neutralization assay and ELISA. Most NMAbs did not react with serotype P1B or P3 strains. In previous studies, three distinct operationally defined epitopes have been identified on VP4 by examining the reactivity patterns of selected antigenic variants of HRV strain KU. At least one of the NMAbs described here recognizes an epitope unrelated to these previously identified epitopes, since it neutralized both KU and its variants. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
