The FIM2 polyclonal Antibody (PACO34690) is a valuable tool for researchers studying FIM2, a protein involved in bacterial virulence. This antibody, produced in rabbits, is highly specific to FIM2 and has been validated for use in various applications such as Western blotting. By binding to the FIM2 protein, this antibody enables the detection and analysis of FIM2 in various samples, making it an ideal choice for studies in microbiology and infectious disease research.FIM2 is a critical component of bacterial adherence and colonization, particularly in the context of urinary tract infections.
Understanding the role of FIM2 in bacterial virulence is essential for developing new strategies to prevent and treat these infections. The FIM2 polyclonal antibody provides researchers with a powerful tool to investigate the function and regulation of FIM2, ultimately leading to a better understanding of bacterial pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets.

Species Reactivity:
Bordetella pertussis
Immunogen:
Recombinant Bordetella pertussis Serotype 2 fimbrial subunit protein (27-207AA)
Bordetella pertussis is the causative agent of whooping cough. An essential step in the disease process is the attachment of the bacteria to the ciliated epithelium of the respiratory tract, enabling the organism to resist normal host-clearance mechanisms. It is unclear which bacterial cell surface component are responsible for adherence but the fimbriae of B.pertussis are prime candidates for being involved in this process.
