Recombinant CMV Pp28 Antigen

Specification

• Cat#: CMV-033
• Product Name: Recombinant CMV Pp28 Antigen
• Description: The E. coli derived recombinant protein contains the CMV Pp28 (UL99) immunodominant regions, 130-160 amino acids.
• Species: CMV
• Source: Escherichia Coli.
• Introduction: The human cytomegalovirus UL99-encoded pp28 is a myristylated phosphoprotein that is a constituent of the virion. The pp28 protein is positioned within the tegument of the virus particle, a protein structure that resides between the capsid and envelope. In the infected cell, pp28 is found in a cytoplasmic compartment derived from the Golgi apparatus, where the virus buds into vesicles to acquire its final membrane.
• Purity: CMV Pp28 protein is >95% pure as determined by 10% PAGE (coomassie staining).
• Formulation: 25mM Tris-Hcl pH 7.2, 1mM EDTA and 50% glycerol.
• Stability: CMV Pp28 protein although stable at 4°C for 1 week, should be stored below -18°C.Please prevent freeze thaw cycles.

Pharmaceutical Information

• Applications: CMV Pp28 antigen is suitable for ELISA and Western blots, excellent antigen for detection of CMV with minimal specificity problems.
