2 μg/lane of Recombinant SARS-CoV Spike RBD His-tag Protein (Catalog # 10583-CV) was resolved with SDS-PAGE under reducing (R) and non-reducing (NR) conditions and visualized by Coomassie® Blue staining, showing bands at 32-38 kDa.
Flow cytometry scatter plot shows SARS-CoV-2 Spike RBD protein binds to ACE-2 expressing HEK293 cells

Detection of SARS-CoV Spike RBD Protein bound to ACE-2 expressing cells by flow cytometry.

In a functional flow cytometry test, (A) Recombinant SARS-CoV Spike RBD His-tag Protein (Catalog # 10583-CV) binds to HEK293 human embryonic kidney cell line transfected with recombinant human ACE-2 and EGFP. Ligand binding was detected by staining cells with APC-conjugated anti-His Monoclonal Antibody (IC050A), which does not stain the cells in the absence of recombinant protein (B).

Background: Spike RBD

SARS-CoV was discovered in association with cases of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) that infected more than 8,000 persons with over 900 fatalities worldwide in 2002-2003 (1). It belongs to a family of viruses known as coronaviruses that also include MERS and SARS-CoV2 that causes the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19). Coronavirus is commonly comprised of four structural proteins: Spike protein(S), Envelope protein (E), Membrane protein (M) and Nucleocapsid protein (N) (1). SARS-CoV S Protein is a trimeric type-I membrane glycoprotein that mediates membrane fusion and viral entry. 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-CoV through interaction with a receptor binding domain (RBD) located at the C-terminus of S1 subunit (5, 6). Based on amino acid (aa) sequence homology, the S protein of SARS-CoV shares 75% and 31% homology with S protein of SARS-CoV2 and MERS, respectively. Before binding to the ACE-2 receptor, structural analysis of the S1 trimer shows that only one of the three RBD domains in the trimeric structure is in the "up" conformation. This is an unstable and transient state that passes between trimeric subunits but is nevertheless an exposed state to be targeted for neutralizing antibody therapy (7). Antibodies to S protein especially the S1 subunit of SARS-CoV have been shown to inhibit interaction with the ACE-2 receptor, confirming S1 subunit as an attractive target for vaccinations or antiviral therapy (8).
