product information

Name :

Anti-RSV F Glycoprotein [11-2-C9]

Catalogue Number :

151856

Applications :

ELISA IF Fn WB

Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets :

Human Respiratory Syncytial (RS) virus Fusion glycoprotein

Reactivity :

Virus

Relevance :

Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a major cause of lower respiratory tract illness and is the chief cause of hospitalization for respiratory tract illness in young children.The glycoprotein F is located on the surface of viral envelope, its function is to induce fusion of viral envelope with host-cell envelope resulting in syncytium formation. The glycoprotein F (also named VP70, F0 or fusion protein) consists of two components: F1 (also named VPG48) and F2 (also named VGP26) held together by disulphide bonds. The reported molecular weight of the VGP26 component varies between 20 to 26 kDa.

Host :

Mouse

Immunogen :

Gradient-purified RSF-44 virus (subgroup A) UV inactivated for 20 minutes at 20C

Subclass :

IgG1 kappa

Positive Control :

Immunoblot: Ag: gradient-purified RS virus (see figure). Indirect immunofluorescence: staining of RSA-2 infected BSC-1 cells

Molecular Weight (kDa) :

The identity and molecular weight of the protein target of this antibody was validated by including within the immunoblot assay (as a marker) a convalescent serum sample from a RS virus infected patient. The protein specificities of the antibodies induced in the human convalescent serum is described in Gimenez et al. (1987).

Myeloma Used :

P3X63Ag8.653

Recommended Growing Conditions :

Dulbecco’s media containing 20% Foetal Bovine serum and 2mM Glutamine.

Strain :

Balb/c

Research Area :

Virology

Notes :

Immunoblot using the reduced and unreduced RS virus shows that 11-2-C9 reacts with the non-reduced form of the virus F protein (VP70). It has a plaque reduction neutralization titer of 10 2. This antibody reacts with the fusion glycoprotein, F (also named VP70 or F0 protein), from both subgroups A and B of RS virus. The 11-2-C9 antibody has RS virus enhancing activity in vitro (enhancement index range: 4.3-5.6) (Gimenez et al., 1996).
