Description

Vaccinia Virus 42Kda Protein is a highly purified recombinant protein derived from the vaccinia virus, a key model in virology and immunology research. This protein is essential for studying viral replication mechanisms, host-pathogen interactions, and for the development of novel vaccine platforms and antiviral therapeutics. It is a critical reagent for researchers and developers in the fields of vaccine development, virology, immunology, and biopharmaceutical production.

Application

• Vaccine Research & Development: Used as a critical antigen or model protein for developing and testing new vaccine candidates, particularly for poxvirus-based vectors.
• Virology Studies: Essential for fundamental research on vaccinia virus structure, replication cycle, and protein function.
• Immunoassay Development: Serves as a standard or coating antigen in ELISA, Western Blot, and other immunoassays to detect specific antibodies.
• Antiviral Drug Screening: Used in high-throughput screening assays to identify compounds that inhibit viral protein function or assembly.
• Diagnostic Reagent Production: Employed in the manufacture of diagnostic kits for the detection of poxvirus infections or related immune responses.
• Biochemical Research: Utilized in protein-protein interaction studies, structural biology, and enzymatic activity assays relevant to viral processes.
