Background
The spike protein (S) of coronavirus (CoV) attaches the virus to its cellular receptor, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). A defined receptor-binding domain (RBD) on S mediates this interaction. The S protein plays key parts in the induction of neutralizing-antibody and T-cell responses, as well as protective immunity.
Description
Recombinant SARS-CoV-2 Spike S1 Protein is produced by HEK293 cells expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Val16-Arg685) of 2019-ncov Spike S1 (Accession #YP_009724390.1) fused with a 6xHis tag at the C-terminus.
Bio-Activity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Recombinant SARS-COV-2 Spike S1 at 2ug/mL (100 uL/well) can bind Recombinant Human ACE2 with a linear range of 0.5-8.7 ng/mL. Immobilized Human ACE2 on COOH Chip, can bind SARS-COV-2 Spike S1 with an affinity constant of 11.4 nM as determined in an SPR assay (Nicoya OpenSPR).
