Monoclonal Anti-HRSV F-hRSV90 Antibody, Human IgG1 (MALS verified)

Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) is the most common etiological agent of acute lower respiratory tract disease in infants and can cause repeated infections throughout life. The RSV fusion glycoprotein (RSV F) is the principal target of RSV neutralizing antibodies in human sera. The RSV F is a type I viral fusion protein synthesized as inactive, single-chain polypeptides that assemble into trimers. RSV F fuses the viral and host cell membranes by irreversible protein refolding from the labile prefusion conformation to the stable post-fusion conformation. The antibody hRSV90 heavy chain interacts with residues 163–181 and site Ø, while the light chain interacts with residues 163–181 and site II.
