Description
SARS Nucleocapsid Polyclonal (CPAB0710)
The SARS Nucleocapsid Polyclonal Antibody (CPAB0710) is a specialized tool for research on the nucleocapsid protein of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) virus. This antibody, produced through immunization of rabbits, exhibits high reactivity with SARS nucleocapsid protein in human samples, making it an essential component for studies on SARS infection and detection.The SARS nucleocapsid protein is a key component in the viral replication and pathogenesis of SARS. By targeting this specific protein, researchers can enhance their understanding of SARS virus biology, transmission, and potential therapeutic interventions.
Validated for use in Western blot applications, the SARS Nucleocapsid Polyclonal Antibody enables precise detection and analysis of the SARS nucleocapsid protein in various research settings. Whether investigating viral dynamics, host-pathogen interactions, or antiviral drug development, this antibody offers a reliable tool for advancing research efforts in virology and infectious disease studies.

Background: | SARS Coronavirus is an enveloped virus containing three outer structural proteins, namely the membrane (M), envelope (E), and spike (S) proteins. Spike (S)-glycoprotein of the virus interacts with a cellular receptor and mediates membrane fusion to allow viral entry into susceptible target cells. Accordingly, S-protein plays an important role in virus infection cycle and is the primary target of neutralizing antibodies. It has recently been shown that SARS is caused by a human coronavirus. Human coronaviruses are the major cause of upper respiratory tract illness in humans, such as the common cold. Coronaviruses are positive-stranded RNA viruses, featuring the largest viral RNA genomes known to date (27-31 kb). The first step in coronavirus infection is binding of the viral spike protein, a 139-kDa protein, to certain receptors on host cells. The spike protein is the main surface antigen of the coronavirus. The most prominent protein in the culture supernatants infected with SARS virus is a 46 kDa nucleocapsid protein. This suggests that the nucleocapsid protein is a major immunogen that may be useful for early diagnostics. |
