Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody recognizes a continuous epitope located at α-helix 10 (residues 196 to residues 207) in the C-terminal domain of the HIV BMJ4 p24 capsid protein. The p24 capsid protein is part of the HIV- 1 Gag precursor protein (p55), together with the matrix (MA/p17) and nucleocapsid (NC/p7) protein domains. p55 is the main structural HIV-1 protein, and is uniquely responsible for virion assembly within the virus life cycle. |
Alternative Name | P24; CA; Gag polyprotein |
UniProt | Q9DGV7 |
Immunogen | The original antibody was generated by immunizing mice with p24 protein. |
Application Notes | The crystal structure of the Fab fragment in complex with the p24 protein from natural HIV-1 strain (BMJ4) was determined. The specificity of the antibody for the p 24 protein of BMJ4 strain was demonstrated by ELISA analysis. Immunofluorescence was performed on 293FT cells using this antibody (Gu et al., 2013; 23620741). The antibody detected CA N21C/A22C-V3 protein by Western blot analysis (Zhang et al. 2018; PMID: 30486318). |
