Catalogue number
SARS-250
Introduction
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.
Description
The Recombinant SARS-CoV Nucleocapsid Protein is manufactured with N-terminal fusion HisTag. The Recombinant SARS-CoV Nucleocapsid His-Tagged Fusion Proteinis 47.8 kDa containing 422 amino acid residues of the SARS-CoV Nucleocapsid protein and 15 additional amino acid residues – HisTag (underlined).
Source
Escherichia coli.
Formulation
Sterile filtered and lyophilized from 0.5 mg/ml in 0.05M Acetate buffer pH4.
Solubility
Add 0.2 ml of 0.1M Acetate buffer pH4 and let the lyophilized pellet dissolve completely. For conversion into higher pH value, we recommend intensive dilution by relevant buffer to a concentration of 10μg/ml. In higher concentrations the solubility of this antigen is limited.
Purity
Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Stability
Store lyophilized protein at -20°C. Aliquot the product after reconstitution to avoid repeated freezing/thawing cycles. Reconstituted protein can be stored at 4°C for a limited period of time; it does not show any change after two weeks at 4°C.
