We produced monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1), Los Angeles strain, and then evaluated them as potential candidates for preparing diagnostic reagents. Of the 318 cell lines expressing antibodies to the virus, 60% (192) secreted IgG and 40% (126) secreted IgM. Twenty-six mAbs were selected based on enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and virus neutralization (VN) titers and characterized by immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescence and immunoblots. The selected mAbs were assigned to one of four groups based on their immunoprecipitation patterns. Group A (4 mAbs) precipitated a complex of three glycoproteins with molecular weight (MW) 130 kDa, 72 kDa and 55 kDa, which presumably represented gI of BHV-1. Monoclonal antibodies of this group were highly reactive in ELISA but had low VN titers. Group B (4 mAbs) precipitated a glycoprotein with MW of 71 kDa (gIV). This group of mAbs had high VN titers. Group C (16 mAbs) precipitated a 97 kDa glycoprotein (gIII). Monoclonal antibodies of this group had high ELISA but low VN titers. Group D (2 mAbs) precipitated a double band of non-glycosylated proteins with MW of 37/32 kDa; these proteins could not be assigned to any of the antigens of BHV-1 previously described. ELISA and VN titers of this group of mAbs were low. To test the antigenic variability of the antigenic determinants which were recognized by these 4 groups of mAbs, we adapted Madin Darby bovine kidney cell-propagated BHV-1 Los Angeles strain to Crandell's feline kidney cell line. After the tenth passage in feline kidney cells, the epitopes on the 37/32 kDa peptide recognized by the mAbs group D were no longer detectable. Additional changes were noted in the electrophoretic mobility of the 130 kDa and 71 kDa glycoproteins (gI) identified by mAb of group A shifted downward. The 71 kDa glycoprotein (gIV) reactive with mAb group B and the 97 kDa (gIII) reactive with mAb group C remained stable. Since clone No. 191 of group B mAb was potent in ELISA, VN, immunoblots and immunofluorescence, and recognized an epitope which did not change under selective pressure, we feel that the mAb produced by this clone are a good candidate for the production of diagnostic reagents.
