http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/2453680http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"The group A rotaviruses are composed of at least seven serotypes. Serotype specificity is defined mainly by an outer capsid protein, VP7. In contrast, the other surface protein, VP3 (775 amino acids), appears to be associated with both serotype-specific and heterotypic immunity. To identify the cross-reactive and serotype-specific neutralization epitopes on VP3 of human rotavirus, we sequenced the VP3 gene of antigenic mutants resistant to each of seven anti-VP3 neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (N-MAbs) which exhibited heterotypic or serotype 2-specific reactivity, and we defined three distinct neutralization epitopes on VP3. The mutants sustained single amino acid substitutions at position 305, 392, 433, or 439. Amino acid position 305 was critical to epitope I, whereas amino acid position 433 was critical to epitope III. In contrast, epitope II appeared to be more dependent upon conformation and protein folding because both amino acid positions 392 and 439 appeared to be critical. These four positions clustered in a relatively limited area of VP5, the larger of the two cleavage products of VP3. At the positions where amino acid substitutions occurred, there was a correlation between amino acid sequence homology among different serotypes and the reactivity patterns of various viruses with the N-MAbs used for selection of mutants. A synthetic peptide (amino acids 296 to 313) which included the sequence of epitope I reacted with its corresponding N-MAb, suggesting that the region contains a sequential antigenic determinant. These data may prove useful in current efforts to develop vaccines against human rotavirus infection."xsd:string
