We report the cloning of antigenic, protein-coding regions of human astrovirus serotype 1 that appear to be common to most, if not all, serotypes of human astrovirus. Screening of lambda gt11 libraries identified three different but overlapping clones (A43, A35, and A1) and one independent clone (A14) that reacted with serum from a rabbit repeatedly immunized with purified astrovirus particles but not with its preimmunization serum. These clones were shown to be astrovirus specific. Of note, a r ...[more]
