Recombinant RSV (Felvizumab Biosimilar) antibody

Catalog No. ABIN5668207

Product Details anti-RSV (Felvizumab Biosimilar) Antibody

Target: RSV (Felvizumab Biosimilar)

Antibody Type: Recombinant Antibody

Reactivity: Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This RSV (Felvizumab Biosimilar) antibody is un-conjugated

Application: ELISA, Functional Studies (Func)

Specificity: This antibody is specific for the conserved fusion (F) protein of RSV.

Characteristics:

OriginalSpeciesName: Human

OriginalFormat: IgG1

Purification: Purified antibody.

Purity: > 98 % as determined by SDS-PAGE

Endotoxin Level: Endotoxin is < 1.0 EU/mg as determined by the LAL method

Immunogen: This antibody was prepared by the humanization of an F protein-specific murine MAb, RSV19. More specifically, molecular techniques were used to insert the complementarity determining regions from murine RSV19 into a human IgG1 heavy and k light chain-variable domain framework.

Clone: RSHZ19

Isotype: IgG kappa

Application Details

Application Notes: Though shown to be safe and well-tolerated (Everitt, 1996) and protective against RSV infection in BALB/c mice and cotton rats (Wyde, 1995), this antibody did not demonstrate efficacy in a Phase 3 study (Reichert, 2008). In in vitro studies, palivizumab, another humanized Mab specific for the F protein of RSV, was 4 to 5-fold more potent than felvizumab in neutralising RSV (Scott, 1999).

Comment:

This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Human IgG1 format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
