Abstract Rabies virus (RABV) causes fatal neurological encephalitis and results in approximately 6000 human death cases worldwide every year. The large (L) protein of RABV, possessing conserved domains, is considered as the target for detection. In this study, three monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), designated as 3F3, 3A6 and L-C, against L protein were generated by using the recombinant truncated L protein (aa 1431-1754) and the epitopes were also identified using a series of overlapping truncated polypeptides for testing the reactivity of mAbs with different RABV strains. The (1479)EIFSIP(1484), (1659)RALSK(1663) and (1724)VFNSL(1728) were identified as the minimal linear epitopes recognized by mAbs 3F3, 3A6 and L-C, respectively. Amino acid alignment showed epitope (1724)VFNSL(1728) recognized by mAb L-C is completely conserved among RABV strains, indicating that mAb L-C could be used to detect all of the RABV strains. Epitope (1479)EIFSIP(1484) is highly conserved among RABV strains except for a P1484S substitution in a China I sub-lineage strain of Asian lineage, which eliminated the reactivity of the epitope with mAb 3F3. However, the epitope (1659)RALSK(1663) was only completely conserved in the Africa-2 and Indian lineages, and a single A1660T substitution, mainly appeared in strains of the China I belonging to Asian lineage and a Cosmopolitan lineage strain, still retained the reactivity of the epitope with mAb 3A6. While both A1660T and K1663R substitutions in a China I lineage strain, single K1663R/Q substitution in some China II strains of Asian lineage and some Arctic-like lineage strains and R1659Q mutation in a strain of Africa-3 lineage eliminated the reactivity of the epitope with mAb 3A6, suggesting mAb 3A6 could be used for differentiation of variable epitopes of some strains in different lineages. Thus, variability and conservation of the three epitopes of L protein showed the reactive difference of mAbs among RABV strains of different lineages. These results may facilitate future studies in development of detection methods for RABV infection, the structure and function of RABV L protein.
