  • Title: Intracellular localization of rotaviral proteins.
    Author: Richardson SC, Mercer LE, Sonza S, Holmes IH.
    Journal: Arch Virol; 1986; 88(3-4):251-64. PubMed ID: 3010907.
    Abstract:
    The differential distribution of two SA 11 rotaviral capsid antigens in thin sections of infected cells was examined using antibody-coated colloidal gold electron-dense particles as specific post-embedding immunocyto-chemical labels. The treatment of thin sections of conventionally fixed and embedded tissue specimens with sodium metaperiodate allowed specific localization of the antigens in tunicamycin-treated, infected CV-1 cells. Both protein antigens were investigated with specific anti-rotavirus hyper-immune sera and with specific monoclonal antibodies. These studies showed that the major outer capsid glycoprotein, gp34, of SA11 rotavirus particles was mainly located within the cisternae and along the membranes of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The antigen of the major inner capsid protein, p42, was identified attached to enveloped virus particles, and even more obviously, on laminar crystalline structures in the nucleus and cytoplasm of the infected cells.
