Specificity: | The antibody 1696 recognizes free N-terminus of mature HIV protease (HIV-1 and HIV-2), an enzyme that hydrolyzes polyproteins of HIV viruses into functional proteins. The antibody 1696 does not react with the precursor. |
Categories: | Virology and Microbiology |
Concentration: | 1 mg/ml |
Storage buffer: | Phosphate buffered saline (PBS) with 15 mM sodium azide, approx. pH 7.4 |
Storage / stability: | Store at 2-8°C. Do not freeze. Do not use after expiration date stamped on vial label. |
Background: | The HIV protease (PR) hydrolyzes polyproteins of HIV virus into functional protein products that are essential for its assembly and subsequent activity. This maturation process occurs as the virion buds from the host cell. HIV protease inhibitors are used in the treatment of patients with AIDS and were considered the first breakthrough in over a decade of AIDS research. HIV protease inhibitors can lower the viral load carried by AIDS patents. _x000D_ |
