Abstract Norovirus infects different animals, including humans, mice, dogs, and cats. Here, we show an X-ray crystal structure of a feline GIV.2 norovirus capsid-protruding (P) domain to 2.35 Å resolution. The feline GIV.2 P domain was reminiscent of human norovirus P domains, except for a novel P2 subdomain α-helix and an extended P1 subdomain interface loop. These new structural features likely obstructed histo-blood group antigens, which are attachment factors for human norovirus, from binding at the equivalent sites on the feline GIV.2 P domain. Additionally, an ELISA showed that the feline GIV.2 was antigenically distinct from a human GII.10 norovirus.
