Application Notes

The original version of the antibody was used in a neutralization assay against human cytomegalovirus (hCMV). It was found to neutralize hCMV with high potency - it neutralized the virus with an IC50 of 0.1 µg/ml and an IC90 of 0.4 µg/ml (US9346874B2). The Fab version of this antibody was generated and its structure in complex with hCMV gB was explored using crystallography. It was also used in neutralization assays, surface staining of full-length gB in flow cytometry, and gB immunoprecipitation (Chandramouli et al., 2015; PMID: 26365435).

Short Description

This reformatted human antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Human IgG3 format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
