Recombinant Varicella-zoster virus Glycoprotein E

• Cat.No.: ORF68-01V
• Product Overview: The protein contains the VZV-gE immunodominant regions, amino acids 48-135. The protein is purified by proprietary chromatographic technique.

Specification

• Species: VZV
• Source: E.coli
• Protein Length: 48-135aa
• Description: Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is an extremely cell-associated alpha herpesvirus. It interacts with cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans during virus attachment. VZV-gE is a glycoprotein that plays an active or supportive role in VZV cell membrane fusion. VZV-gE was found to enhance the fusogenic potential of VZV gB.
• Form: liquid (Supplied in 60 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.25% Sarkosil, 10 mM Glutathione and 50% glycerol).
• Purity: > 95 %
• Applications: Antigen in ELISA and Western blots, excellent antigen for detection of VZV with minimal specificity problems.
• Storage: Store at -20 centigrade. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.
• Expiry: 12 months
• Shipping: Shipped on gel packs
