Neutralizing antigenic areas on the glycoproteins of bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1) were identified by reciprocal competition radioimmunoassays using monoclonal antibodies. Three interrelated and two independent antigenic areas were identified on the 77-kDa (K) gIV envelope glycoprotein. Antigenic analysis of this protein has not been previously described. Four interrelated and one independent antigenic areas were found on the 97K gIII envelope glycoprotein. A third group of monoclonal antibodies reacting in Western blot with the 74K subunit of gI, a 130K disulfide-linked 74K/55K heterodimer, revealed four interrelated antigenic areas. All of the antigenic areas on all three glycoproteins were reactive with neutralizing monoclonal antibodies and all were targets for antibody-complement lysis. However, antibodies against gIV were the most efficient at neutralizing the virus and rendering infected cells susceptible to antibody-complement lysis. Convalescent sera from experimentally infected calves were used in a competitive radioimmunoassay to confirm that each antigenic area on the gI, gIII, or gIV glycoproteins was a target for bovine antibodies during primary infection with BHV-1.
