Abstract
The porcine rotavirus OSU strain was used to produce monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed against the outer capsid protein VP4. From two separate fusions, eight MAbs that inhibited hemagglutination activity of the OSU strain were selected. All MAbs immunoprecipitated both the OSU VP4 protein derived from a lysate of infected MA104 cells and the OSU VP4 protein expressed in Sf9 cells by a recombinant baculovirus. By immunoprecipitation of in vitro-translated OSU gene 4 transcripts of different length, the eight MAbs were found to be specific for the VP8 subunit of VP4. All MAbs neutralized the OSU strain but failed to neutralize human, bovine, and simian rotavirus strains. Antiserum to the expressed OSU VP4 protein was used to study the distribution of VP4 antigenicity among porcine rotaviruses. At least two distinct specificities were identified among 14 rotavirus strains that had been previously assigned to four distinct VP7 serotypes. Five groups of monotype specificities of the VP4 protein were identified by the eight anti-VP4 MAbs among 11 porcine strains that share the same VP4 serotype.
