  • Developmental Sequence and Intracellular Sites of Synthesis of Three Structural Protein Antigens of Influenza A2 Virus
    JOURNAL OF VIROLOGY, Feb. 1970, p. 153-164 Vol. 5, No. 2 Copyright © 1970 American Society for Microbiology Printed in U.S.A. Developmental Sequence and Intracellular Sites of Synthesis of Three Structural Protein Antigens of Influenza A2 Virus KOICHIRO MAENO1 AND EDWIN D. KILBOURNE Department of Microbiology, Mount Sinai School of Medicine of The City U iversity of New York, New York, New York 10049 Received for publication 17 September 1969 Specific antisera for hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase antigens of in- fluenza A2 virus (A2E) were produced through the segregation of the two pro- teins in reciprocal viral recombinants of A2E and Aoe viruses. Gamma globulin frac- tions of these specific antisera and of antiserum specific for the nucleoprotein (NP) antigen of Aoe virus were conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate and employed to follow the synthesis of the three structural proteins in clone 1-5C-4 human aneuploid cells, with parallel measurement of serological and biological activity of the antigens by other techniques. In this system, NP antigen appeared first (at 3 hr) in the cell nucleus, whereas HA and neuraminidase appeared coincidentally, at 4 hr after infection, in the cytoplasm. The initial detectability of biological or complement-fixing activity of the proteins coincided with their demonstrability as stainable antigens. Late in infection, all three antigens were detected at the cell surface. Antibody specific for HA partially blocked the intracellular staining of neuraminidase and inhibited the enzymatic activity of both extracted and intact extracellular virus. These observations suggest the close intracytoplasmic proximity of the two envelope antigens and perhaps their initial association in a larger protein.

    Opinion COVID-19 Infection, Vaccines, and Immunity—The Antibody Response Requires Detailed Analysis Nigel J. Dimmock School of Life Sciences, University of Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, UK; [email protected]; Tel.: +44-(0)7788728910 Abstract: Current tests for antibodies specific for the SARS-CoV-2 S protein say nothing about their precise epitope specificities. These data are needed to properly assess the immune status of individuals following infection or vaccination, and the risk posed by virus variants. Keywords: SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2 S protein; human neutralizing antibodies; epitope specificity; epitope mapping Assessment of immune responses to SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19, is based almost entirely on the antibody response, and apart from clinical trials, compar- isons of the merits of one vaccine versus another, or of the first jab versus the second, or the immunity of individuals resulting from infection are all based on antibodies specific for the viral spike or S protein. Broadly speaking such antibodies are measured by a lateral flow test or similar in which antibody binds to the viral S protein, a test which is fast but non-quantitative and gives no indication of antibody function. Alternatively, there is the more labour-intensive neutralization test which measures the ability of antibody to inhibit Citation: Dimmock, N.J. virus infectivity in cell culture, under conditions that do not mimic the in vivo situation.

  • Serological Methods in the Identification and Characterization of Viruses
    CHAPTER 4 Serological Methods in the Identification and Characterization of Viruses M. H. V. Van Regenmortel Laboratoire de Virologie Institut de Biologie Mo!eculaire et Cellulaire 67000 Strasbourg, France 1. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this chapter is to present an integrated view of the various serological techniques that have been used in virology. The accent will be placed on the principles that govern each type of test and on the general applicability of the different serological techniques in all fields of virus research. In recent years, advances in serological tech­ niques have sometimes been applied in only one area of virology, although they could have been equally useful to workers studying other groups of viruses. No doubt this stems from the host-oriented approach that has guided the compartmentation of virology into separate fields of specialization. When it comes to serological properties, however, the similarities between animal, insect, bacterial, and plant viruses are paramount. The same immunochemical principles govern the in vitro serological reactions of all viral antigens, and much of general interest can be learned from the findings obtained with each particular group of viruses. An attempt will be made here to emphasize the general validity of specific experimental procedures. A number of recent reviews restricted to the serology of particular groups of viruses are available 183 H. Fraenkel-Conrat et al.

  • Studies on Influenzal Meningitis
    STUDIES ON INFLUENZAL MENINGITIS 1. THE PROBLEMS O~ SPECIFIC THERAPY* BY HUGH K. WARD, M.B., AND JOYCE WRIGHT, B.M., B.Cm (From tke Department of Bacteriology and Immunology of tke Harvard University Medical Sckool, Boston) (Received for publication, November 9, 1931) INTRODUCTION Whatever the relation of Pfeiffer's Bacillus influenzae to epidemic in- fluenza-and that is not under discussion here there is no doubt that this organism is the cause of influenzal meningitis, a disease that is much more common than is generally realized. The records of The Children's Hospital, Boston, disclose that in the last 5 years there have been 56 cases of meningococcus meningitis and 25 cases of influenzal meningitis in children under 2 years of age. In both diseases the cases have occurred only sporadically during this period. Influenzal meningitis is a disease of infancy and early childhood and is almost always fatal. Rivers (1), in an analysis from the literature of 220 cases under 2 years of age, gives k mortality of 92 per cent. It is remarkable that no record can be found of any attempt being made to treat these cases with an appropriate antiserum, despite the striking results that have been obtained with antimeningococcus serum. Woll- stein (2) in 1911 injected antiserum intraspinally 24 hours after she had infected a rhesus monkey, the animal recovering, but no account can be found of the use of this serum in human cases. Rivers (3) has pointed out, and this has been our own experience, that the strains of the influenza bacillus that are found in influenzal meningitis are fairly homogeneous, thus simplifying the problem of specific serum treat- ment.

The hardcopy form of this chapter can be obtained by contacting: Dr. Robert S. Safferman National Exposure Research Laboratory U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 26 West M.L. King Dr. Cincinnati OH 45268 USA e-mail: [email protected] Date of Publication (in Revised Form): May 1988 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CHAPTER 12 IDENTIFICATION OF ENTEROVIRUSES 1. INTRODUCTION A neutralization test used to identify enteroviruses is described in this chapter. The test utilizes reference-typing sera directed against isolated waterborne viruses. This renders the viruses noninfectious when treated with a matching serotype reagent. Virus inactivation is ascertained microscopically by observing the absence of host cell destruction in the presence of the virus-antibody mixture. The procedure consists of simultaneously inoculating virus and antiserum into a microtiter plate, incubating the virus-antibody mixture for 2 hr, adding a suspension of host cells to the mixture, incubating the host cells-virus-antibody mixture for three days, then examining the cells daily for five more days for the absence of cytopathic effects (CPE). The test utilizes the Lim Benyesh-Melnick (LB-M) antiserum pools which consist of 61 equine antisera. They include LB-M antiserum pools A-H for the identification of 41 enteroviruses, a single antiserum preparation for the identification of coxsackievirus B3 and LB-M pools J-P for the identification of 19 group A coxsackieviruses not identified by pools A-H. The A-H antiserum pools, prepared by Melnick and coworkers (1973), with instructions for rehydration and storage and with virus identification tables, had been previously available from the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

  • Pl Path 502 Plant Virus Serology
    Plant Virus Serology Pl. Path. 502/602 PN Sharma Department of Plant Pathology CSK HPAU, Palampur-176062 (HP), INDIA Serology Based on antigen - antibody reaction Antigen and antibody reaction results in the formation of visible substrate, which is perhaps due to the formation of bridges between the two and thus form an aggregate which precipitate when big enough. Historical development Coons (1942), developed florescent antibody technique. Precipination in gels (Oudin, 1946; Ouchterolony, 1948). Modified agglutination test (Van Sloglerens, 1955). Double diffusion tests in plates (Octerlony, 1962) in tubes (Oakelay and Fullthrope, 1963). Bentonite flocculation test (Bozicevich et al., 1963). Kassamis (1972) reported potato mop top virus relatedness with TMV. Immuno-diffusion tests with Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) (Purcifall and Batchelor, 1977). Modified latex test (Querfurth and & Paul 1979) Holling and Stone (1973) found groups of 18 viruses serologically related by immuno-diffusion and other tests. 1975 *Kohler and Milstein, Monoclonal antibodies used in genetic analysis Clark, M.F. (1975) – developed ELISA technique. Clark & Adam (1978) – used ELISA in Plants Virology. Blanksky and Derrick (1977) reported that seed borne viruses can be detected serologically. Paul et al.
