Epitope mapping of mAbs. (A) Schematic diagram of MERS-NP putative domain architecture and deletion mutants. For epitope mapping, 11 deletion mutants were produced as His-tagged proteins in the wheat germ cell-free system. NTD, N-terminal domain; LKR, flexible linker region; CTD, C-terminal domain. (B) Confirmation of protein expression. His-tagged NP and deletion mutants were immunoblotted with anti-His-tagged antibody. (C) Summary of epitope analysis. Reactivity of each mAb to deletion mutants was evaluated by immunoblotting. + and - indicate positive and negative detection, respectively. NT; not tested. Negative detections are highlighted in gray.
