Human Rhinovirus Monoclonal Antibody
ORDERING INFORMATION
Catalog No.: 18758
Format: 100ug Protein G-purified antibody in PBS, pH 7.4.
BACKGROUND
Picornaviruses are small, non-enveloped RNA viruses with an icosahedral capsid and a single strand, plus-sense RNA genome. The genome encodes a single polyprotein that is proteolytically processed by viral proteases into structural and non-structural proteins. The family of picornaviruses includes numerous human and animal viruses including more than 100 serotypes of human rhinoviruses (HRV). HRV infections are characteristic upper airway infections (the main cause of the common cold), and they provoke significant lower airway symptoms for patients with asthma, cystic fibrosis, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
SPECIFICATION SUMMARY
Antigen: Purified HRV16.
Clone no.: R16-7
Host Species: Mouse
Antibody Subtype: IgG2b
SPECIFICITY
This non-neutralizing antibody recognizes capsid protein VP2 (mw ~30kDa) of HRV16, HRV1A, and HRV39 and VP2 precursors VP0 (mw ~37kDa) and P1 (mw ~90kDa).
APPLICATIONS
Immunoblotting: use at 2-5ug/ml.
Immunohistochemistry: use at 1-10ug/ml.
These are recommended concentrations; endusers should determine optimal concentrations for their applications.
