Source

Biotinylated MERS Spike Trimer Protein, His,Avitag (SPN-M82E3) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Tyr 18 - Trp 1295 (Accession # K9N5Q8-1 (R748A, R751A, V1060P, L1061P, K1284Q)).

Predicted N-terminus: Tyr 18

Molecular Characterization

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus, followed by an Avi tag (Avitag™).

The protein has a calculated MW of 147.6 kDa. The protein migrates as 180-210 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

Labeling

Biotinylation of this product is performed using Avitag™ technology. Briefly, the single lysine residue in the Avitag is enzymatically labeled with biotin.

Protein Ratio

Passed as determined by the SABA assay / HABA assay / binding ELISA.

Purity

>90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

>90% as determined by SEC-MALS.

Formulation

Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in 0.1 M Sodium citrate, pH5.5 with trehalose as protectant.

Background

The MERS or Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus, is a member of the coronavirus family and is known to cause severe respiratory illness in humans. The MERS protein is a type I transmembrane protein that plays a vital role in the virus's ability to infect host cells. It is composed of three main domains: the extracellular domain, the transmembrane domain, and the cytoplasmic domain. The extracellular domain, further divided into S1 and S2 subunits, is responsible for receptor recognition and binding. The S1 subunit contains the Receptor Binding Domain (RBD), which is crucial for the virus's attachment to and entry into host cells. The RBD specifically interacts with the host cell receptor, facilitating the initial step of infection. The S2 subunit, on the other hand, is responsible for membrane fusion. It contains a fusion peptide that inserts into the host cell membrane, initiating the fusion process. This fusion allows the virus's genetic material to be released into the host cell, initiating the infection process.
