A series of monoclonal antibodies were produced against virion proteins of the multicapsid nuclear polyhedrosis virus ofOrgyia pseudotsugata(OpMNPV). Four of these antibodies reacted with a protein of 14 kd on Western blots of electrophoretically separated OpMNPV virion proteins. These antibodies were used to identify immunoreactive clones from a λ gt11 expression library of OpMNPV DNA. By hybridization of insert DNA from the λ gt11 clones to blots of digests of OpMNPV genomic DNA, and by sequencing the ends of the λ gt11 inserts, these clones were shown to contain a portion of the p10 gene. The regions containing epitopes recognized by the four monoclonal antibodies were located using fusion proteins made from selected portions of the p10 reading frame in a trpE vector. One of the p10 antibodies was used to characterize p10 synthesis in infectedLymantria disparcells by using Western blots and immunofluorescent staining. The p10 protein was detected with immunofluorescent microscopy at 14 hr postinfection and by 20 hr it formed intensely staining cytoplasmic structures. On Western blots of infected cells, two forms of p10 (of about 14 and 15 kd) were observed. One of the p10 monoclonal antibodies showed a strong cross-reaction with cytoskeletal structures in uninfected insect cells and rat fibroblasts.
