Mouse Monoclonal Antibody Specific for Merkel Cell Polyomavirus- Small T antigen
University of Pittsburgh
posted on 08/20/2010
Investigators at the University of Pittsburgh have discovered a highly sensitive and specific antibody which detects the MCV small T antigen. No antibodies are presently available that only detects the MCV small T antigen and which do not also detect the MCV large T antigen with which it shares a common N-terminal exon.
Suggested Uses
- This antibody can also be used as an immunoassay in experimental studies to follow MCV viral replication and to study MCV viral oncogenesis.
Advantages
- No antibodies are presently available that only detects the MCV small T antigen and which do not also detect the MCV large T antigen with which it shares a common N-terminal exon.
