Publication Abstract from PubMed

Recent reports suggest that human GII.17 noroviruses are increasing in prevalence. We analyzed the evolutionary changes of three GII.17 capsid protruding (P) domains. We found that the GII.17 P domains had little cross-reactivity with antisera raised against the dominant GII.4 strains. X-ray structural analysis of GII.17 P domains from 2002 to 2014/15 suggested that surface exposed substitutions on the uppermost part of the P domain might have generated a novel 2014/15 GII.17 variant.
