Specificity

This antibody binds gpUL75 (gH) of the human cytomegalovirus, which is an 86-kDa glycoprotein. The heterodimer glycoprotein H-glycoprotein L is required for the fusion of viral and plasma membranes leading to virus entry into the host cell. It is though to bind a conformational epitope on the gH, and its bind is destroyed if the protein is denatured.
