Scientific Data Images for SARS-CoV-2 Spike RBD Antibody

Detection of Spike RBD in Transfected & Wild Type HEK293 Human Embryonic Kidney Cell Line.

Spike RBD was detected in immersion fixed Transfected & absent in Wild Type HEK293 Human Embryonic Kidney Cell Line using Mouse Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Spike RBD Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB11294) at 8 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm.

SARS-CoV-2 variant protein (named 20A.EU2) binding to ACE-2-transfected Human Cell Line is Blocked by SARS2-20A.EU2 S1 Antibody.

In a functional flow cytometry test, Recombinant SARS-CoV2 20A.EU2 S1 His-tagged protein (10780-CV) binds to HEK293 human embryonic kidney cell line transfected with recombinant human ACE-2 and eGFP. (A) Binding is completely blocked by 25 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-SARS2-20A.EU2 S1 Antibody (Catalog # MAB11294) but not by (B) Mouse IgG1 Isotype Control (MAB002). Protein binding was detected with Mouse Anti-His APC-conjugated Monoclonal Antibody (IC050A). Staining was performed using our Staining Membrane-associated Proteins protocol.

Background: Spike RBD

SARS-CoV-2, which causes the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19), belongs to a family of viruses known as coronaviruses that are commonly comprised of four structural proteins: Spike protein (S), Envelope protein (E), Membrane protein (M), and Nucleocapsid protein (N) (1). SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein (S Protein) is a glycoprotein that mediates membrane fusion and viral entry. The S protein is homotrimeric, with each ~180-kDa monomer consisting of two subunits, S1 and S2 (2). In SARS-CoV-2, as with most coronaviruses, proteolytic cleavage of the S protein into the S1 and S2 subunits is required for activation. The S1 subunit is focused on attachment of the protein to the host receptor while the S2 subunit is involved with cell fusion (3-5). The S1 protein of SARS-CoV-2 shares 65% and 22% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with the S1 protein of SARS-CoV-1 and MERS, respectively. The S Protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, like the SARS-CoV-1 counterpart, binds Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2), but with much higher affinity and faster binding kinetics through the receptor binding domain (RBD) located in the C-terminal region of S1 (6). Based on structural biology studies, the RBD can be oriented either in the up/standing or down/lying state with the up/standing state associated with higher pathogenicity (7). Polyclonal antibodies to the RBD of the SARS-CoV-2 S1 protein have been shown to inhibit interaction with the ACE2 receptor, confirming RBD as an attractive target for vaccinations or antiviral therapy (8). It has been demonstrated that the S Protein can invade host cells through the CD147/EMMPRIN receptor and mediate membrane fusion (9, 10). A SARS-CoV-2 variant (named 20A.EU2) carrying the S1 subunit amino acid (aa) change S477N and D614G emerged presumably in France and becomes the second most common variant in western Europe (11).
