Identification of novel B-cell epitope in gp85 of subgroup J avian leukosis virus and its application in diagnosis of disease

BACKGROUND: The gp85 is the main envelope protein of avian leukosis subgroup J (ALV-J) involved in virus neutralization. Here, we mapped the epitope in ALV-J gp85 by ELISA using synthetic peptides and developed epitope based diagnostic methods for ALV-J infection. RESULTS: The results revealed that...

description BACKGROUND: The gp85 is the main envelope protein of avian leukosis subgroup J (ALV-J) involved in virus neutralization. Here, we mapped the epitope in ALV-J gp85 by ELISA using synthetic peptides and developed epitope based diagnostic methods for ALV-J infection. RESULTS: The results revealed that monoclonal antibody (mAb) JE9 recognized (83)WDPQEL(88) motif, which was highly conserved in gp85 among different ALV-J strains by homology analysis. Moreover, after evaluation with two hundred and forty sera samples obtained from different chicken farms, the epitope-based peptide ELISA had much higher sensitivity than commercial ELISA kit for antibody detection of ALV-J. CONCLUSIONS: A novel B-cell epitope recognized by the mAb JE9 was identified. The developed peptide-ELISA based on this novel B-cell epitope could be useful in laboratory viral diagnosis, routine surveillance in chicken farms, and also in understanding the pathogenesis of ALV-J.
