Cells infected with the cp-52 mutant virus do not bind murine mAbs directed at epitopes shared by subgroup A and subgroup B RSV G glycoproteins

mAb	Protein specificity of mAb	Subgroup specificity of mAb	Reactivity of indicated RSV with Ab
			A2 wt	B1 wt	cp52
131-2g	G	A,B	+	+	−
130-5f	G	A,B	+	+	−
L9	G	A,B	+	+	−
92-11C	F	A	+	−	−
102-10B	F	B	−	+	+

Plaque immunostaining was performed as previously described (14). Vero cell monolayers in 24-well plates were inoculated with 50 pfu of indicated virus, incubated for 5 days at 37°C, fixed with methanol, and stained with RSV F- or G-specific mAbs. Each G-specific mAb was used at a dilution of 1:200. Each F-specific mAb was used at a dilution of 1:1,000.
