Recombinant SARS Coronavirus Spike Glycoprotein Mosaic (S2) protein

• Cat.No.: Spike-204V
• Product Overview: Recombinant SARS Coronavirus Spike Glycoprotein Mosaic (S2) protein was expressed in E.coli. Mosaic protein contains the middle section of the Spike protein 408-470, 540-573 amino acids immunodominant regions.

Specification

• Species: SARS-CoV
• Source: E.coli
• Protein Length: 408-470;540-573 a.a.
• Description: Spike protein S2: Mediates fusion of the virion and cellular membranes by acting as a class I viral fusion protein. Under the current model, the protein has at least three conformational states: pre-fusion native state, pre-hairpin intermediate state, and post-fusion hairpin state. During viral and target cell membrane fusion, the coiled coil regions (heptad repeats) assume a trimer-of-hairpins structure, positioning the fusion peptide in close proximity to the C-terminal region of the ectodomain. The formation of this structure appears to drive apposition and subsequent fusion of viral and target cell membranes.
