Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Spike RBD Antibody, Mouse IgG1 (AS113) (Omicron Specific), 100µg

Background
It's been reported that SARS-CoV-2 can infect the human respiratory epithelial cells through interaction with the human ACE2 receptor. The spike protein is a large type I transmembrane protein containing two subunits, S1 and S2. S1 mainly contains a receptor binding domain (RBD), which is responsible for recognizing the cell surface receptor. S2 contains basic elements needed for the membrane fusion.The S protein plays key parts in the induction of neutralizing-antibody and T-cell responses, as well as protective immunity.

Source
The mouse monoclonal antibody is produced from a hybridoma resulting from fusion of SP2/0 myeloma and B-lymphocytes obtained from a mouse immunized with Spike RBD. The antibody is specific against the Omicron (B.1.1.529/BA.1) variant of SARS-CoV-2, and has no binding with the spike RBD of the wild type virus and other viral lineages.

Isotype
Mouse IgG/kappa

Specificity
This product is a specific antibody against Spike RBD of Omicron (B.1.1.529/BA.1) variant of SARS-CoV-2. Cross-reactivity with Spike protein RBD domain of other coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, HCoV-229E, HCoV-NL63, HCoV-OC43 and HCoV-HKU1, has not been tested.
