• Alternate name: VP7, F
• Research fields: Microbiology
• Clone: 11-5-G9
• Class: Monoclonal
• Conjugation: Unconjugated
• Strain: Balb/c

• Description: Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a major cause of lower respiratory tract illness and is the chief cause of hospitalization for respiratory tract illness in young children.The glycoprotein F is located on the surface of viral envelope, its function is to induce fusion of viral envelope with host-cell envelope resulting in syncytium formation. The glycoprotein F (also named VP70, F0 or fusion protein) consists of two components: F1 (also named VPG48) and F2 (also named VGP26) held together by disulphide bonds. The reported molecular weight of the VGP26 component varies between 20 to 26 kDa.
• Immunogen: Gradient-purified RSF-44 virus (subgroup A) UV inactivated for 20 minutes at 20C
• Isotype: IgG1 kappa
• Myeloma used: P3X63Ag8.653
• Recommended controls: Immunoblot: Ag: gradient-purified RS virus (see figure). Indirect immunofluorescence: staining of RSA-2 infected BSC-1 cells
