• Molecular Weight: 34 kDa
• 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.
• Purity: SARS Envelope protein is >95% pure as determined by 10% PAGE(coomassie staining).
• Formulation: 50mM Tris-HCl, 60mM NaCl, pH 8 and 50% glycerol.
• Stability: SARS Envelope Protein is shipped at ambient temperature.Upon arrival, store at -20C.

Pharmaceutical Information

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