• Specificity: Clone 2B3E5 is a ZooMAb mouse recombinant antibody that specifically detects SARS-CoV-1/2 Spike protein. It targets an epitope within the extracellular domain.
• Immunogen: Recombinant fragment corresponding to full-length extracellular domain from SARS-CoV virus spike protein.
• Application: Affinity Binding Assay: This antibody bound recombinant extracellular domain of Spike protein with a KD of 3.8 x 10-7 and with the recombinant receptor binding domain with a KD of 4.4 x 10-7.Flow Cytometry Analysis: 1 μg/mL from a representative lot detected SARS-CoV-1/2 S protein in Transfected 293 cells (Courtesy of Dr Thomas Moran, Center for Therapeutic Antibody Development).Western Blotting Analysis: 1 μg/mL from a representative lot detected SARS-CoV-1/2 S Protein in Vero E6 cells +/- SARS-Cov-2 infection (Courtesy of Jeff Johnson Laboratory, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (ISMMS).ELISA Analysis: A multiple Dilution from a representative lot detected SARS-CoV-1/2 S Protein in S1 fusion protein (Courtesy of Dr Thomas Moran, Center for Therapeutic Antibody Development).Note: Actual optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user as specimens, and experimental conditions may vary with the end user
• Target description: SARS-CoV-1/2 Spike glycoprotein (UniProt: P59594/P0DTC2; also known as S glycoprotein, E2, Peplomer protein) is encoded by the S gene (Gene ID: 1489668/43740568) in SARS-CoV-1/2 virus. The SARS-CoV-2 is a positive-strand RNA virus that causes severe respiratory syndrome in human. The mature SARS-CoV-2 contains 4 structural proteins: Envelope (E), Membrane (M), Nucleocapsid (N), and the Spike protein (S). E and M proteins help in viral assembly and N protein is needed for RNA synthesis. The S protein is a single-pass type I, homotrimeric, membrane glycoprotein that is responsible for virus binding and entry into host cell. It is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-12), which is subsequently cleaved off to generate the mature protein that contains an extracellular domain (aa 13-1213), a transmembrane domain (aa 1214-1234), and a cytoplasmic domain 1235-1273). The S protein is further processed into S1 (aa 13-685) and S2 (aa 686-1273) subunits by host cell furin. The presence of a furin polybasic cleavage site in S protein from SARS-CoV-2 sets it apart from S protein in SARS-CoV that possesses a monobasic S1/S2 cleavage site. The S1 subunit has the receptor binding domain (RBD; aa 319-541) that mediates entry of SARS-CoV-2 into sensitive cells through the peptidase domain of host Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) with high affinity (KD = 15 nM). The S2 protein, which is reported to be well conserved, is responsible for membrane fusion. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.[1][2][3]
