Related Product Information for HCV recombinant protein
Description: The E Coli derived recombinant protein contains the HCV NS3 immunodominant regions, amino acids 1356-1459. The protein is fused to a GST tag at N-Terminus.
Introduction: HCV is a small 50nm, enveloped, single-stranded, positive sense RNAvirus in the family Flaviviridae. HCV has a high rate of replication with approximately one trillion particles produced each day in an infected individual. Due to lack of proofreading by the HCV RNA polymerase, the HCV has an exceptionally high mutation rate, a factor that may help it elude the host's immune response. Hepatitis C virus is classified into six genotypes(1-6) with several subtypes within each genotype. The preponderance and distribution of HCV genotypes varies globally. Genotype is clinically important in determining potential response to interferon-based therapy and the required duration of such therapy. Genotypes 1 and 4 are less responsive to interferon-based treatment than are the other genotypes (2, 3, 5 and 6).

Product Notes
The HCV (Catalog #
AAA142569) is a Recombinant Protein and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Hepatitis C Virus NS3 Genotype-6 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Western Blot (WB). HCV NS3 Genotype-6 antigen is suitable for ELISA and Western blots, excellent antigen for detection of HCV with minimal specificity problems. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the HCV for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.
It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of
"Hepatitis C Virus NS3 Genotype-6, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of
the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always
suggest centrifuging these vials
to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to
opening. Please be advised that
certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an
additional dry ice fee may also be
required.
