Abstract
Filamentous bacteriophages are natural nanoparticles formed by the self-assembly of structural proteins that have the capability of replication and infection. They are used as a highly efficient vaccine platform to enhance immunogenicity and effectively stimulate the innate and adaptive immune response. Compared with traditional vaccines, phage-based vaccines offer thermodynamic stability, biocompatibility, homogeneity, high carrying capacity, self-assembly, scalability, and low toxicity. This review summarizes recent research on phage-based vaccines in virus prevention. In addition, the expression systems of filamentous phage-based virus vaccines and their application principles are discussed. Moreover, the prospect of the prevention of emerging infectious diseases, such as coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19), is also discussed.

Abstract
Advent of new strains and shift in predominantly circulating genotypes are characteristics of group- A rotavirus (RVA), one of the major causes of childhood gastroenteritis. During diarrheal disease surveillance at Kolkata, India (2014-2016), a shift in circulating RVA strains from G1P[8] to G3P[8] was seen. Stool samples from children (n = 3048) with acute gastroenteritis were tested of which 38.7% were RVA positive. G1 was the predominant strain (65.3%) in 2014-2015 whereas in late 2015 and 2016, G3 became the preponderant strain (44.6%). In the past decade G3 strains were not observed in this region, we conducted whole genome sequencing of representative strains to gain insight into the phenomenon of emergence and genetic constellation of these circulating human G3 strains. The analyses revealed intergenogroup reassortment in G3P[4] strains (among Wa and DS-1-like genogroup) whereas G3P[8] strains were authentic Wa-like. Phylogenetic analysis revealed Kolkata G3 strains as polymorphic and thus they formed two sub-clusters due to antigenic differences in their VP7 protein. One of the sub-clusters had the wild-type threonine at 87 amino acid position while another sub-cluster had an isoleucine mutation. Presence of additional N-linked glycosylation site at amino acid 283 of VP7 glycoprotein suggests that the major neutralizing epitope on the VP7 (G3) of RotaTeq vaccine differs from the currently circulating G3 strains. The study is important as efficiency of rotavirus vaccine depends on the circulating heterogeneous genotype constellations. Continuous monitoring of circulating RVA strains in endemic settings like India is therefore important in pre- and post-vaccination period to monitor the emergence of new reassortant genotypes in addition to assessing vaccine efficacy.

Abstract
A 4-year (1996-2000) survey of rotavirus infection involving 2,218 diarrheal fecal specimens of children collected from five regions of Japan was conducted. A total of 642 (28.9%) specimens were found to be rotavirus positive. A changed prevalence pattern of rotavirus G serotype was found with an increase of G9 and G2 and a decrease of G1, although G1 remained the prevailing serotype. Serotype G9 was unexpectedly determined to be the prevailing serotype in Sapporo (62.5%) and Tokyo (52.9%) in 1998-1999, and in Saga (78.4%) in 1999-2000. G9 strains isolated from 1998-1999 belonged to the P[8]-NSP4-Wa-group with long RNA pattern, while, G9 strains isolated from 1999-2000 belonged to three groups, the P[8]-NSP4-Wa-group with long RNA pattern, the P[4]-NSP4-KUN-group with short RNA pattern and a mixed-type group (P[4]/P[8]-NSP4-KUN/Wa-group with long RNA pattern). Both sequence and immunological analysis of VP7 revealed that the G9 strains from 1999-2000 were much more closely related to the G9 strains isolated worldwide in the 1990s, including G9 strains found in Thailand in 1997. However, the G9 strains from 1998-1999 were distinct from these and more closely related to the G9 prototype strains F45, AU32 and WI61 discovered in Japan and the US in the 1980s. Thus the G9 strains isolated in 1998-1999 had progenitors common to the G9 prototype strains, while the strains isolated in 1999-2000 did not directly evolve from them but were related to global G9 strains that have emerged in recent years. These data supported our previous report that G9 rotavirus might exist as two or more subtypes with diverse RNA patterns, P-genotype and NSP4 genogroup combinations (Y.M. Zhou et al., J. Med. Virol. 65: 619-628, 2001) and suggested that G9 rotavirus prevalent in Japan during two successive years belonged to different subtypes. The nucleotide sequences presented in this paper were submitted to DDBJ, EMBL and GenBank nucleotide sequence databases. The accession numbers are: 00-Ad2863VP7 (AB091746), 00-OS2986VP7 (AB091747), 00-SG2509VP7 (AB091748), 00-SG2518VP7 (AB091749), 00-SG2541 (AB091750), 00-SG2864 (AB091751), 00-SP2737VP7 (AB091752), 99-SP1542VP7 (AB091753), 99-SP1904VP7 (AB091754), 99-TK2082VP7 (AB091755) and 99-TK2091VP7 (AB091756).

Abstract
Over the last decade, rotavirus G1 has represented the most common genotype worldwide. Since 2000, the prevalence of rotavirus G1 has decreased in some countries such as Japan and China. To monitor the trend of the VP7 encoding gene of rotavirus G1, we performed a sequence analysis of 74 G1 rotavirus strains isolated in Japan, China, Thailand, and Vietnam during the period from 2002 to 2005. The phylogenetic tree showed that all of the studied G1 strains from the four countries clustered into lineage III, the same as the majority of the G1 strains isolated in China and Japan in 1990 and 1991. Examination of the deduced amino acid sequences of the G1 strains from China and Japan revealed an amino acid substitution at position 91 (Asn instead of Thr) in antigenic region A when compared to the G1 strains isolated in China and Japan in 1990, 1991, and global reference strains. For the G1 strains from Thailand and Vietnam, there were three amino acid substitutions, not belonging to any antigenic regions. The study showed that there have been no considerable changes of human rotavirus G1 isolated in Japan, China, Thailand, and Vietnam. Further studies need to be carried out for a better understanding of why such changes in the prevalence of rotavirus G1 occur in these countries.

Abstract
A total of 1,797 fecal specimens from infants and children with acute gastroenteritis in Japan from July 2000 to June 2003 were tested for group A rotavirus by ELISA, RT-PCR, RNA-PAGE and latex agglutination methods. Of these, 439 were found to be positive for group A rotavirus and this presented 24.4%. In 2000-2001, G1 was the most prevalent (45.5%) followed by G2 (32.5%), G3 (12.3%), G9 (5.9%) and G4 (2.6%). However, G2 was found predominant with 40% in the following year (2001-2002). Interestingly, G9 had a rapid increase of infection up to 17.8%. In 2002-2003, G3 dominated over other G-types with 34%. Another interesting feature of the study was the demonstration of great genetic diversity among G9 strains in Japan. Worth of note was the first prevalence pattern of rotavirus G-types with an increase of G2, G3 as well as G9 and a decrease of G1 during the 20 year-survey of rotavirus infection in Japan.

Abstract
The rotavirus non-structural NSP4 protein causes membrane destabilization as well as an increase in intracellular calcium levels in eukaryotic cells and induces diarrhea in young mice, acting as a viral enterotoxin. In this study the phage display technique was used to generate a panel of single-chain variable fragment (scFv) antibodies specific for the NSP4 protein of the human rotavirus strain Wa from a human semi-synthetic scFv library. After several rounds of panning and selection on NSP4 adsorbed to polystyrene tubes, individual scFv were isolated and characterised by fingerprinting and by sequencing the VH and VL genes. The isolated scFv antibodies specifically recognize NSP4 in enzyme immunoassay and in Western blot. Four truncated forms of the NSP4 protein were constructed which allowed us to map the binding region of the selected scFv antibodies to the C-terminal portion of NSP4. The isolated scFv antibodies constitute valuable tools to analyse the mechanisms of NSP4 functions.

Abstract
Rotavirus infection of host cells, like other viruses, is a complex process that has not been fully elucidated, and much attention has been focused on the regions of the viral attachment protein, VP4, that are involved in binding to the cellular receptor. In this study, phage display technology was employed to generate a g3p VP4 gene-targeted phage display peptide library using the porcine rotavirus strain CRW8, and a method was optimised for panning this library on adherent MA104 cells to identify receptor binding domains. Recombinant phage that displayed expressed peptides from both the rotavirus VP4 trypsin cleavage products VP8* and VP5* were selected, and while some of the phage clones contained insert sequences from regions of VP4 implicated previously in cell binding and infection, new domains were also identified. In all, four regions within VP8* and six regions of VP5* were selected by panning. To our knowledge, this paper is the first description of using a gene-targeted phage display library to identify receptor binding domains on viral proteins.
