| Description | The E.Coli derived 30kDa recombinant protein contains the Matrix protein 182-216 amino acids immunodominant regions. |
| Protein Background | SARS Coronavirus is an enveloped virus containing three outer structural proteins, namely the membrane (M), envelope (E), and spike (S) proteins. Spike (S)-glycoprotein of the virus interacts with a cellular receptor and mediates membrane fusion to allow viral entry into susceptible target cells. Accordingly, S-protein plays an important role in virus infection cycle and is the primary target of neutralizing antibodies. |
| Purification Method | SARS Matrix protein was purified by proprietary chromatographic technique. |
