Monoclonal antibody raised against human NRP-1 b1b2 domain, clone 1A4 (mAB1 in studies published in Science). Partially blocking binding of CendR peptides to b1 domain of NRP-1. In recent years the relevance of CendR pathway for cellular uptake of biological nanoparticles – viruses - has been demonstrated in several independent studies. A direct role of Neuropilin (NRP) in virus entry has been demonstrated for three viruses, the retrovirus Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and the herpes viruses EBV and CMV5-8. In the case of CMV, NRP-2 acts as a receptor only for specific cell types, while in fibroblasts the virus uses a different molecule for entry. Viruses that display CendR peptides on their surface are expected to bind a specific CendR binding pocket on the extracellular domain of NRP. Ample evidence obtained with synthetic and phage-displayed CendR peptides shows that they bind to conserved binding pocket in b1 domain of NRP-1. The inventors have developed a monoclonal antibody that specifically interacts with the CendR binding pocket of the b1 domain of Neuropilin-1 and blocks binding of CendR peptides. This monoclonal antibody has potential applications in the research of SARS-CoV2 in that the antibody is capable to reduce/block the internalisation of SARS-CoV2 into cells, thus to stop viral replication. |
