Overview

Product name

Anti-Influenza A Virus M1 antibody (HRP)
See all Influenza A Virus M1 products (4) ...

Description

Goat polyclonal to Influenza A Virus M1 (HRP)

Conjugation

HRP

Conjugation notes

Ab21008 is covalently coupled to a highly purified preparation of horseradish peroxidase (RZ>3). Care is taken to ensure adequate conjugation while preserving maximum enzyme activity. Free enzyme is removed.

Specificity

Ab21008 recognizes the matrix protein (M) for any strain of Influenza A. Conservation of the matrix protein sequence between hemagluttinin/Neuraminidase typed strains. Does not react with HEp-2 cells by indirect immunofluorescence.

Tested applications

ELISA, IF, WBmore details

Cross reactivity

Does not react with Influenza B, Adenovirus, Respiratory syncytial virus and Parainfluenza viruses (1-3). Not yet tested in other species.

Immunogen

Influenza A-Phillipines (H3N2).

General notes

Use of sodium azide as a preservative will substantially inhibit the enzyme activity of horseradish peroxidase.

Target

Relevance

Influenza virus type A matrix protein, also known as M1, is composed of a 252 amino acid sequence and is type-specific in influenza viruses. It is located inside the viral lipid envelope and plays a key role in virus assembly and replication. M1 can be isolated from particles by removing the envelope with detergents and reducing the pH to 4.0. Influenza viruses are a common and widely spread infectious agent. Like many other viruses, influenza virus are constantly undergoing mutations and thereby avoiding the immune system. The Influenza A Virus M proteins form a continuous shell on the inner side of the lipid bilayer, maintaining the structural integrity of the virus particle through hydrophobic interactions.
