SARS-CoV-2 Spike S2 protein, His Tag (BA.2/Omicron)

SARS-CoV-2 Spike S2 protein, His Tag (BA.2/Omicron) (S2N-C52Hh) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293) . It contains AA Ser 686 - Pro 1213 (Accession # QHD43416.1 (N764K, D796Y, Q954H, N969K, F817P, A892P, A899P, A942P, K986P, V987P) ) . The spike mutations are identified on the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant (Pango lineage: BA.2/3/4/5) . Proline substitutions (F817P, A892P, A899P, A942P, K986P, V987P) are introduced to prevent the formation of aggregates in the course of protein production.

Product Specifications

Background

It's been reported that SARS-CoV-2 can infect the human respiratory epithelial cells through interaction with the human ACE2 receptor. The spike protein is a large type I transmembrane protein containing two subunits, S1 and S2. S1 mainly contains a receptor binding domain (RBD), which is responsible for recognizing the cell surface receptor. S2 contains basic elements needed for the membrane fusion.The S protein plays key parts in the induction of neutralizing-antibody and T-cell responses, as well as protective immunity.

Specifications

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus. The protein has a calculated MW of 60.0 kDa. The protein migrates as 70-90 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
