SARS Spike Mosaic Protein

Source : The E.Coli derived 37 kDa recombinant mosaic protein contains the C-terminal t section of the Spike protein 1051-1076, 1121-1154, 1162-1190 amino acids immunodominant regions. SARS Coronavirus is an enveloped virus containing three outer structural proteins, namely the membrane (M), envelope (E), and spike (S) proteins. Spike (S) -glycoprotein of the virus interacts with a cellular receptor and mediates membrane fusion to allow viral entry into susceptible target cells. Accordingly, S-protein plays an important role in virus infection cycle and is the primary target of neutralizing antibodies.
