Identification of antigenic domains and peptides from VP15 of white spot syndrome virus and their antiviral effects in Marsupenaeus japonicus
Abstract White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is one of the most devastating pathogens in penaeid shrimp and can cause massive damage in shrimp aquaculture industries. Previously, the WSSV structural protein VP15 was identified as an antigenic reagent against WSSV infections. In this study, we truncated...

In this study, we truncated this protein into VP15(1–25), VP15(26–57), VP15(58–80), and VP15(1–25,58–80).
