Description
HIV 2 gp39 Monoclonal Antibody (CPAB0708)
In a similar vein, the HIV-2 gp39 Polyclonal Antibody (CPAB0708) offered by Assay Genie is a valuable tool for researchers studying the HIV-2 virus. This polyclonal antibody is raised in rabbits and exhibits high reactivity with samples from HIV-2 infected individuals. Validated for use in Western blot applications, this antibody specifically binds to the gp39 protein of the HIV-2 virus, allowing for accurate detection and analysis in a variety of cell types.The HIV-2 gp39 protein is a crucial component of the HIV-2 virus and plays a significant role in viral replication and pathogenesis.
By targeting this protein, researchers can gain valuable insights into the mechanisms of HIV-2 infection and potentially develop new strategies for treatment and prevention. The HIV-2 gp39 Polyclonal Antibody is an essential tool for advancing our understanding of HIV-2 biology and exploring new therapeutic options for combating this virus.

Background: | Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a retrovirus that can lead to a condition in which the immune system begins to fail, leading to opportunistic infections. HIV primarily infects vital cells in the human immune system such as helper T cells (specifically CD4+ T cells), macrophages and dendritic cells. HIV infection leads to low levels of CD4+ T cells through three main mechanisms: firstly, direct viral killing of infected cells; secondly, increased rates of apoptosis in infected cells; and thirdly, killing of infected CD4+ T cells by CD8 cytotoxic lymphocytes that recognize infected cells. When CD4+ T cell numbers decline below a critical level, cell-mediated immunity is lost, and the body becomes progressively more susceptible to opportunistic infections. HIV was classified as a member of the genus Lentivirus, part of the family of Retroviridae. Lentiviruses have many common morphologies and biological properties. Many species are infected by lentiviruses, which are characteristically responsible for long-duration illnesses with a long incubation period. Lentiviruses are transmitted as single-stranded, positive-sense, enveloped RNA viruses. |
