Description

Herpesvirus Saimiri Cd59-Like Protein CAS NO 147062-68-8 is a recombinant protein derived from the Herpesvirus saimiri, engineered to mimic the function of the human CD59 complement regulatory protein. This compound is of significant value in immunological and virological research for studying viral immune evasion mechanisms and complement system inhibition. It is primarily utilized by biotechnology and pharmaceutical R&D teams focused on developing novel therapeutic strategies against herpesviruses and modulating complement-mediated immune responses.

Application

• Biomedical Research: Used as a critical reagent in studying the molecular mechanisms of complement inhibition and viral pathogenesis.
• Drug Discovery: Serves as a target or tool compound in screening assays for developing inhibitors of viral immune evasion proteins.
• Immunology Studies: Employed to investigate the regulation of the membrane attack complex (MAC) and protect host cells from complement-mediated lysis.
• Virology Research: Essential for understanding Herpesvirus saimiri biology and its interactions with the host immune system.
• Diagnostic Development: Potential use as a reference standard or coating antigen in immunoassays for detecting specific immune responses.
• Therapeutic Protein Engineering: Acts as a model protein for designing novel biologics that modulate complement activity for therapeutic purposes.

Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards for research-grade biologics. Each batch is characterized for identity, purity, and biological activity using advanced analytical techniques. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific test results, including purity by SDS-PAGE and HPLC, are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store lyophilized material at -20°C or below. Upon reconstitution, aliquot and store at -80°C to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure containers are sealed under inert atmosphere or desiccant when applicable.
