Scientific Data Images for Viral wnvNS3 Protease Antibody

Detection of wnvNS3 Protease antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of wnvNS3 Protease by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of Recombinant Viral wnvNS3 Protease. PVDF membrane was probed with 2 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Viral wnvNS3 Protease Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB29071) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF018). A specific band was detected for full length wnvNS3 Protease at approximately 32 kDa and C-terminal NS3 at approximately 22 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Applications for Viral wnvNS3 Protease Antibody

Application
Recommended Usage

Immunoprecipitation

25 µg/mL
Sample: Conditioned cell culture medium spiked with Recombinant Viral wnvNS3 Protease (Catalog # 2907-SE), see our available Western blot detection antibodies

Western Blot

2 µg/mL
Sample: Recombinant Viral wnvNS3 Protease (Catalog # 2907-SE)

Neutralization

Measured by its ability to neutralize Recombinant Viral wnvNS3 Protease (0.5 µg/mL, Catalog # 2907-SE) cleavage of the fluorogenic peptide substrate pERTKR-Amc (20 µM, Catalog # ES013). The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 15 µg/mL.

Background: wnvNS3 Protease

Infection of mosquito-borne West Nile Virus can cause severe neurological disease and can be epidemic. Two non-structural proteins, NS3 and NS2b, play an essential role in viral replication and are therefore a potential target for treatment and prevention of West Nile Virus disease. NS3 consists of a trypsin-like serine protease with a catalytic triad (His51, Asp75, Ser135) and a putative helicase. Requiring NS2b as the cofactor, NS3 protease processes viral polyprotein precursor (1, 2). The purified recombinant protein used as an immunogen consists of three forms: the full-length fusion protein, the N-terminal NS2b, and the C-terminal NS3 with a G4SG4 linker. NS3 protease has a relatively narrow substrate specificity that prefers Arg in P1 and Lys in P2.
