Recombinant monoclonal antibody to VP28. Manufactured using AbAb’s Recombinant Platform with variable regions (i.e. specificity) from the phage display antibody P75E8.
UniProt Accession Number of Target Protein: Q9ICB7
Alternative Name(s) of Target: WSSV; WSSV VP28; 25kDa structural protein VP25; Envelope protein VP28; Major structural protein VP28; Mab216; 216
Immunogen: The original antibody was isolated from a single-chain fragment variable (scFv) antibody library displayed on phage using spleen cells from mice immunized with denatured WSSV.
Specificity: This antibody binds a linear epitope on the VP28 envelope protein of the White spot syndrome virus (WSSV). White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is a major pathogen in shrimp aquaculture. VP28 is one of the most important envelope proteins of WSSV.
Application Notes: This antibody can be used for the detection of VP28 envelop protein of the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) using ELISA (PMID: 18998540).
