- Description: CD81 is co-opted during the life cycle of diverse human pathogens: it is involved in hepatitis C virus (HCV) and Plasmodium sporozoite invasion of hepatocytes, and also contributes to the assembly and budding of human immunodeficiency virus and influenza A virus. Developed as a part of panel of murine monoclonal antibodies against full-length CD81 to further examine and assessed their ability to inhibit or neutralize HCV infection.
