Catalogue Number | 151857 |
Applications | ELISA IF Fn WB |
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets | Human Respiratory Syncytial (RS) virus Fusion glycoprotein |
Synonyms | VP70, F0 |
Reactivity | Human and Virus |
Relevance | Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a major cause of lower respiratory tract illness and is the chief cause of hospitalization for respiratory tract illness in young children.The glycoprotein F is located on the surface of viral envelope, its function is to induce fusion of viral envelope with host-cell envelope resulting in syncytium formation. The glycoprotein F (also named VP70, F0 or fusion protein) consists of two components: F1 (also named VPG48) and F2 (also named VGP26) held together by disulphide bonds. The reported molecular weight of the VGP26 component varies between 20 to 26 kDa. |
Host | Mouse |
Immunogen | Gradient-purified RSF-44 virus (subgroup A) UV inactivated for 20 minutes at 20C |
Positive Control | Immunoblot: Ag: gradient-purified RS virus (see figure). Indirect immunofluorescence: staining of RSA-2 infected BSC-1 cells |
Subclass | IgG1 |
Myeloma Used | P3X63Ag8.653 |
Recommended Growing Conditions | Dulbecco’s media containing 20% Fetal Bovine serum (DH20) prepared as follows (for final volume of 300ml: 237ml DMEM plus 60 ml Fetal Bovine Serum plus 3ml L-Glutamine). |

Notes |
Immunoblot using the reduced and unreduced RS virus shows that 11-6-F9 reacts with the non-reduced form of the virus F protein (VP70). It has a plaque reduction neutralization titer of 10 1.3. Induce in vitro antibody-dependent enhancement of macrophage cells. This antibody has a RS virus 90% plaque neutralization titre of 101.3.and it also has RSV enhancing activity (enhancement index range: 2.5-5.3). Gimenez et al. (1996). Gimenez et al. (1996) was the first report showing that a monoclonal antibody specific for the F protein has enhancing activity. |
