Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I attempted to establish two analytical methods to evaluate the carbohydrate-norovirus (NoV) interaction: surface plasmon resonance by using the virus-like particles (VLPs) of 25 strains from 18 genotypes and assays using red blood cells or cells modified on the glycosyltransferase gene. Then, using these analytical systems, I aimed at identifying the carbohydrate epitopes important in recognition by NoV and the carbohydrate-binding site on the virus. In addition, I analyzed the amino acid sequences of 15 genotypes, except the 18 genotypes used for this analysis, and narrowed down the candidate sequence of the carbohydrate-binding domain common to all 33 genotypes.
