Epstein-Barr Virus (LMP-1)(CS1) , Biotin conjugate , 0.1mg / mL

This antibody is a mixture of four different monoclonal antibodies. This antibody is specific to 60 kDa latent membrane protein (LMP-1) encoded by the BNLF1 gene of the EBV. Each clone reacts with different epitopes on the hydrophilic C-terminus of the cytoplasmic domain of LMP-1. This antibody stains strongly with EBV-positive lymphoblastoid cell lines and EBV infected B cell immunoblasts in infectious mononucleosis. EBV , also designated human herpesvirus 4 (HHV-4) , is a member of the herpesvirus family and is one of the most common human viruses. EBV infects B cells and , though often asymptomatic , it can cause infectious mononucleosis , a disease characterized by fatigue , fever , sore throat and muscle soreness. Primary antibodies are available purified , or with a selection of fluorescent CF® Dyes and other labels. CF® Dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF®405S and CF®405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets , because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors.
