Tool Details
- Tool name: Anti-SDelta3 [7G12]
- Clone: 7G12
- Tool type: Antibodies
- Class: Monoclonal
- Conjugate: Unconjugated
- Reactivity: Virus
- Host: Mouse
- Application: IP ; WB
- Description: Monoclonal antibody used to aid understanding the method of SARS membrane fusion and entry. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) is a species of coronavirus known to infect humans, bats, and certain other mammals. The SARS-related coronavirus is an enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus which enters its host cell by the ACE2 receptor. SARS genome encodes for four structural proteins, namely nucleocaspid (N), spike (S), membrane (M) and envelope (E). The S protein, which forms morphologically characteristic projections on the virion surface, is responsible for binding to cellular receptor and mediating the fusion between viral and cellular membranes. The S?3 is a fragment containing residues from 168 to 461 of the S protein. This antibody has use in investigating the mechanism of membrane fusion and virus entry.
