Identification of a conserved B-cell epitope on duck hepatitis A type 1 virus VP1 protein.

The VP1 protein of duck hepatitis A virus (DHAV) is a major structural protein that induces neutralizing antibodies in ducks; however, B-cell epitopes on the VP1 protein of duck hepatitis A genotype 1 virus (DHAV-1) have not been characterized.To characterize B-cell epitopes on VP1, we used the mono...
