Description: The E. coli derived recombinant 6xHis-tag fusion protein is a multimer having a molecular mass of 48kDa and containing the T. pallidum p15 immunodominant regions and six histidines fused at the C- terminus. Background: Syphilis is a chronic, complex sexually transmitted disease of humans caused by the spirochetal bacterium Treponema pallidum. Humans are the only known reservoir for T. pallidum. The 15 kDa lipoprotein of Treponema pallidum is a major immunogen during natural syphilis infection in humans and experimental infection in other hosts. The humoral and cellular immune responses to this molecule appear late in infection as resistance to reinfection is developing.
HIS Tag
Specificity: Immunoreactive with sera of T. pallidum infected individuals.
Antigen in ELISA and Western blots, excellent antigen for detection of T. pallidum with minimal specificity problems.
