Info

Catalogue Number 157995
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets Targeting HIV-1 protease using HIV1 PR specific inhibitor
Synonyms HIV-1 PR; HIV-1 protease; HIV-2 protease; HIV1 PR; HIV2 PR; HIV1 protease
Relevance HIV-1 protease is a retroviral aspartyl protease (retropepsin), an enzyme involved with peptide bond hydrolysis in retroviruses, that is essential for the life-cycle of HIV, the retrovirus that causes AIDS.

- iBodies® are capable of replacing antibodies in biomedical applications such as ELISA, flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, immunocytochemistry, Western Blot and immunoprecipitation.
- These iBodies® consist of an N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) copolymer decorated with low-molecular-weight compounds that function as targeting ligand (e.g., enzyme inhibitors, receptor ligands), affinity anchor (e.g., biotin) and/or imaging probe (various fluorophores).
- These iBodies® have been used for enzyme inhibition, protein isolation, immobilization, quantification and live cell imaging as well as for classical Western Blot application. The system is remarkably modular and can be used for different biological/biochemistry assays.
Research Area Cell Cycle, Cell Signaling & Signal Transduction, Immunology, Virology
Notes iBodies(R) is a registered trade mark of IOCB Tech s.r.o.
