Monoclonal Antibodies That Bind to Domain III of Dengue Virus E Glycoprotein Are the Most Efficient Blockers of Virus Adsorption to Vero Cells

Abstract: The specific mechanisms by which antibodies neutralize flavivirus infectivity are not completely understood. To study these mechanisms in more detail, we analyzed the ability of a well-defined set of anti-dengue (DEN) virus E-glycoprotein-specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to block virus adsorption to Vero cells. In contrast to previous studies, the binding sites of these MAbs were localized to one of three structural domains (I, II, and III) in the E glycoprotein. The results indicate that most MAbs that n… Show more

“…Antibodies directed against particular epitopes of the envelope protein are capable of virus neutralization, i.e., the inhibition of virus infection of susceptible cells in vitro. The dominant neutralizing epitopes have been mapped to one of three domains of the envelope protein, domain III, using monoclonal antibodies for dengue virus [9], as well as JEV [10] and WNV [11]. Additional neutralizing epitopes have recently been identified on domains I and II of the envelope protein as well [12].…”

“…Numerous data indicate that ED3 plays an important role in the infectious process (Hung et al, 2004;Se-Thoe et al, 2000;Thullier et al, 2001). In particular, many antibodies that are specific for ED3 are neutralizing (Crill & Roehrig, 2001;Roehrig, 2003). Of note, their epitopes are generally sensitive to elimination of the disulfide bond (Roehrig et al, 2004).…”
