SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid protein (D3L, R203K, G204R, S235F), His Tag | NUN-C52H8-1mg| Gentaur Distribution US, UK & Europe
Nucleocapsid (N) protein is the most abundant protein found in coronavirus. CoV N protein is a highly immunogenic phosphoprotein important for viral genome replication and modulation of cell signaling pathways. It was first identified by a research team while they were screening for ADP-ribosylated proteins during coronavirus (CoV) infection (Grunewald M. E., et al. 2017, Virology; 517: 62-68). The array of diverse functional activities accommodated in N protein makes it more than a structural protein but also an interesting target in the development of antiviral therapeutics. Because of the conservation of N protein sequence and its strong immunogenicity, N protein of coronavirus is chosen as a diagnostic tool.
Source: SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid protein, His Tag (NUN-C52H8) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Met 1 - Ala 419 (Accession # QHO62115.1). D3L/ R203K/ G204R/ S235F were identified in the SARS-CoV-2 Alpha variant (Pango lineage: B.1.1.7; other names: 20I/501Y.V1 or VOC 202012/01) (data retrieved from https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33095454/).
