Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody is specific for a five amino acid region (S/T)VETG located in the main variable region (VR) VR1 which was present in all N. meningitidis strains. It recognizes class 3 outer membrane protein of Neisseria meningitidis. This antibody can recognize fifty six strains belonging to seven serogroups: A, B, 29E, L, X, Y, Z, and five serotypes: 1, 4, 5, 12, 13 but did not recognize the serotypes 2, 6, 9, 11, 14, 15, 18 and 19. |
Alternative Name | class 3 outer membrane protein; 15F9; NM-2 |
UniProt | |
Immunogen | The original antibody was generated by immunizing mice with serotype antigen preparations from case isolate B385 strain of Neisseria meningitidis, from Havana. |
Application Notes | The binding reactivity of this antibody against fifty six strains of Neisseria meningitidis belonging to seven serogroups: A, B, 29E, L, X, Y, Z, and five serotypes: 1, 4, 5, 12, 13 was assessed using whole cell ELISA. This antibody can also be used in the detection of these serogroups and serotypes using western blot (Guillen et al., 1997). |
