Classification of Hybridomas to Respiratory Syncytial Virus Glycoproteins

Abstract
We have classified 28 hybridomas to the RS virus glycoproteins, VP66, VP84, by virus neutralization, RIP, and RIA tests. Without resorting to RIP, a combination of neutralization tests and RIA on BCH4 and RS/HO cells could be used to classify 79% of the hybridomas antibodies correctly. VP66 contains major determinants for virus neutralization since 11/13 hybridoma antibodies to this protein neutralized RS virus while 0/15 hybridoma antibodies to VP84 neutralized the virus.
