1 DECEPTIVE IMPRINTING OF FMDV: MAPPING OF CAPSID HYPER-VARIABLE REGIONS BETWEEN TWO DISPARATE SAT2 STRAINS Tovhowani Ramulongo Lia Rotherham, Pamela Opperman, Jacques Theron, Elizabeth Reider, Francois Maree

2 Introduction ~ SAT2 is the most prevalent and diverse of all SAT serotypes ~ Recent incursion into North Africa and the Middle East ~ FMDV uses deceptive imprinting to decoy host immune response from vital conserved regions i.e. RGD ~ These decoy epitopes may convey some neutralizing activity or protection, but are largely strain specific ~ Genetically modified viruses provide a valuable tool for the manipulation of the biological properties of field and laboratory strains ~ This present a possible avenue towards design of safe and effective vaccines that provide broader protection against the diverse SAT2 field strains

3 Introduction ~ Masking of immunodominant epitopes may allow the immune system to refocus and recognize previously subdominant conserved epitopes that induce protection ~ Immune dampening strategy by replacing known hypervariable immunodominant epitope regions between two disparate strains ~ SAT2/ZIM/7/83 (topotype II) previously used as vaccine strain and the devastating SAT2/EGY/9/2012 (topotype VII) ~ This Egypt 2012 outbreak resulted in highest death rate of young animals

4 Aim To dampen and refocus the immunity towards neutralizing epitope regions of a SAT2 virus

5 Objectives ~ To predict hypervariable immunodominant epitope regions between two SAT2 viruses ~ To replace predicted antigenic regions of SAT2/ZIM/7/83 with the corresponding regions of SAT2/EGY/9/2012 ~ To characterize the epitope replaced mutants

6 Prediction of antigenic sites ~ Systematic analysis of the capsid proteins of SAT2/EGY/9/2012 and SAT2/ZIM/7/83 ~ Emphasis on regions of high amino acid variability ~ Flexible exposed structural loops of the viral capsid ~ Previously identified antigenic sites on SAT2/ZIM/7/83 or types A and O ~ Predicted epitope region of SAT2/EGY/9/2012 were introduced into the pSAT2 plasmid; a SAT2/ZIM/7/83 infectious clone
