Scientific Data Images for SARS-CoV-2 Spike S2 Subunit Antibody

Detection of SARS-CoV-2 Spike S2 Subunit by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of Recombinant SARS2-S2, Recombinant SARS2-S. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Rabbit Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Spike S2 Subunit Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB11370) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Rabbit IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF008). Specific bands were detected for Spike S2 Subunit at approximately 70, 200 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Western Blot Buffer Group 1.

SARS-CoV-2 Spike S2 Subunit ELISA Standard Curve.

Recombinant SARS-CoV-2 Spike S2 Subunit protein was serially diluted 2-fold and captured by Rabbit Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Spike S2 Subunit Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB11370) coated on a Clear Polystyrene Microplate (Catalog # DY990). Rabbit Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Spike S2 Subunit Monoclonal Antibody (MAB11362) was biotinylated and incubated with the protein captured on the plate. Detection of the standard curve was achieved by incubating Streptavidin-HRP (Catalog # DY998) followed by Substrate Solution (Catalog # DY999) and stopping the enzymatic reaction with Stop Solution (Catalog # DY994).

Background: Spike S2 Subunit

SARS-CoV-2, which causes the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19), belongs to a family of viruses known as coronaviruses that also include MERS and SARS-CoV-1. Coronaviruses 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). As with most coronaviruses, proteolytic cleavage of the S protein into two distinct peptides, 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 (2-4). A metallopeptidase, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2), has been identified as a functional receptor for SARS-CoV2, similar to SARS-CoV-1, through interaction with a receptor binding domain (RBD) located at the C-terminus of S1 subunit (5, 6). The S2 subunit of SARS-CoV-2 shares 90% and 41% amino acid sequence identity with the S2 subunit of SARS-CoV-1 and MERS, respectively. It has been demonstrated the S Protein can invade host cells through the CD147/EMMPRIN receptor and mediate membrane fusion (7, 8).
