METHOD OF DETERMINING IMMUNE ENHANCEMENT OF VIRUS INFECTIVITY USING FC RECEPTOR-TRANSFECTED CELL LINES

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of detecting immune enhancement of virus infectivity, a method of determining neutralization and immune enhancement of virus infectivity, a method of identifying a virus epitope that displays immune enhancement, a method of identifying a compound that modulates activity of an Fc receptor, and a method of identifying a compound that modulates intracellular signaling of an Fc receptor. DNA constructs, cells, and kits relating to these assays are also disclosed.
