The S32 amino acid deletion in the GP5 protein modulates the infectivity of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus
This study highlights the S32 site in the PRRSV GP5 protein as an important factor influencing virus propagation, neutralization, cell tropism and pathogenicity in piglets, and suggests that targeting this residue could lead to the development of more effective PRRSV vaccines.
