| Immunogen | Made to Viral FELINE IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS p24 gag |
| Specificity | NB100-64802 recognizes an immunodominant p24 epitope of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) p24 gag. The lentivirus FIV, responsible for a progressive and debilitating immune deficiency syndrome in domestic cats, similar to that caused by the human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), is a complex retrovirus with a tightly-packed genome, containing the structural genes gag, env and pro-pol and the accessory genes vif, rev and ORF-A/2. The specific binding epitope recognized by clone PAK3-2C1 appears to be enclosed in a tight peptide coil during gag production and maturation. The addition of 0.3% Triton-X detergent is recommended to reveal this epitope for antibody binding. NB100-64802 detects a dominant band of approximately 24kDa, and also detects p24 gag precursor bands at 36, 39, 49 and 52kDa under reducing conditions in Western blotting. NB100-64802 does not recognize Feline Leukaemia Virus (FeLV), Feline Herpes Virus (FHV) type 1, Feline Coronavirus or Feline Calicivirus. |
