Abstract:
:The rotaviruses are important medical and veterinary pathogens that cause acute diarrheal disease in children and in the young of most mammalian and avian species. The successful development of a rotavirus vaccine should significantly reduce worldwide infant morbidity and mortality and economic losses and increase food-production. Recent successes in the cultivation and characterization of rotavirus strains from humans and animals have led to a better understanding of the major antigens of these viruses and the genes encoding these antigens. The products of three independent genes (1) the neutralization antigen (the outer capsid glycoprotein); (2) the subgroup antigen (the major inner capsid protein); and (3) the hemagglutinin (the outer capsid protease-sensitive protein) are the major viral antigens. The properties and structure of these antigens are discussed. Further knowledge should facilitate the synthesis and development of novel antigen or subunit vaccines.
