Product Specific Information

This antibody recognizes and binds the non-linear/conformational epitope of the N protein of SARS-CoV and also binds the SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein.

Target Information

Human coronaviruses are the major cause of upper respiratory tract illness in humans, such as the common cold.
Coronaviruses are positive-stranded RNA viruses, featuring the largest viral RNA genomes known to date (27–31 kb).
The first step in coronavirus infection is binding of the viral spike protein (139 kDa) to certain receptors on host cells. The spike protein is the main surface antigen of the coronavirus.

The most prominent protein in the culture supernatants infected with SARS virus is a 46 kDa nucleocapsid protein, suggesting that the nucleocapsid protein is a major immunogen that may be useful for early diagnostics.
SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid Protein is associated with nucleic acid and is the most abundant protein for coronavirus.
Because of the strong immunogenicity of coronavirus Nucleocapsid, it is believed that SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid Protein has potential value for the diagnosis of the virus.
