The epitope of the VP1 protein of porcine parvovirus [PDF]
Virology Journal, 2010 Abstract Porcine parvovirus (PPV) is the major causative agent in a syndrome of reproductive failure in swine. Much has been learned about the structure and function of PPV in recent years, but nothing is known about the epitopes of the structural protein VP1, which is an important antigen of PPV.
