摘要: Numerous prior studies have indicated that viable rotavirus reassortants containing structural proteins of heterologous parental origin may express unexpected phenotypes, such as changes in infectivity and immunogenicity. To provide a basis for alterations phenotypic expression, three-dimensional analysis these was conducted. The structures the show while VP4 generally maintains structure when moved to protein background, certain reassortants, there are subtle conformation VP4. correlated with expression VP4-associated phenotypes. Interactions between VP7 expressing phenotypes appeared induce conformational seen
