Recombinant monoclonal antibody to envelope protein. Manufactured using AbAb’s Recombinant Platform with variable regions (i.e. specificity) from the phage display antibody ZIKVEF3S06.
Alternative Name(s) of Target: ZIKV envelope protein; E protein
Immunogen: The original antibody was generated by immunizing chicken with ZIKV envelope protein followed by antibody library construction and phage display-based selection.
Specificity: The antibody binds to the E protein of Zika virus. The envelope protein forms a dimer on the smooth surface of the mature virus, and participates in receptor binding and fusion to the host.
Application Notes: The specificity of the scFv format of the antibody was confirmed by ELISA analysis. The antibody detected the recombinant E protein by western blot analysis. The scFv format recognized the E protein in a transfected Vero cell by flow cytometry. Competitive inhibition assay was employed to calculate the percentage of inhibition and the dissociation constant of the antibody against the E protein (inhibition of 50% = 77.42 ug/mL and Kd= 4.55 *10^-6 M).The antibody has diagnostic or therapeutic potential for ZIKV (PMID: 31940993).
