Screening and identification of T helper 1 and linear immunodominant antibody-binding epitopes in spike 1 domain and membrane protein of feline infectious peritonitis virus

Highlights • FIPV, belongs to Alphacoronavirus , causes a fatal disease in wild and domestic cats. • Th1 activity plays an important role in protect against FIPV infection. • We identified the Th1 and antibody-binding epitopes in S1 domain and M protein of FIPV. • We selected 3 peptides that strongl...

Description
Summary:Highlights • FIPV, belongs to Alphacoronavirus , causes a fatal disease in wild and domestic cats. • Th1 activity plays an important role in protect against FIPV infection. • We identified the Th1 and antibody-binding epitopes in S1 domain and M protein of FIPV. • We selected 3 peptides that strongly induced Th1 activity from FIPV structural proteins. • 3 peptides were administered with CpG-ODNs to SPF cats, 2 peptides induced Th1 activity.
