Subtype H7 influenza viruses: comparative antigenic and molecular analysis of the HA-, M-, and NS-genes
Abstract
Antigenic analysis of the haemagglutinin and matrix protein with corresponding sets of monoclonal antibodies as well as sequence analysis of HA-, M-, and NS-genes were carried out to establish antigenic and genetic relationships between four fowl plague virus (FPV) strains of H7 subtype. The data obtained revealed close genetic relatedness between the oldest known influenza A virus, A/chicken/Brescia/1902 (H7N7), and two FPV strains, A/FPV/Dobson (H7N7) and A/FPV/Weybridge (H7N7). These three strains apparently differ in all genes investigated from the A/FPV/Rostock isolate.
