The basic engineering procedure for a VLP construction consists of three main steps: (A) cloning and expression of VLP in the expression system, (B) purification of VLP, and (C) formulation. The first step in VLP production is to clone the viral structural genes of interest and expressed in different expression systems including, prokaryotic (bacteria, yeast) […]

Virus-like particles (VLPs) are highly structured protein complexes that resemble a native virus capsid ranging 20–800 nm. It is made up of one or more different molecules with the ability to self-assemble and mimicking the form and size of a virus devoid of viral genome and are therefore non-infectious. VLPs in general can be either enveloped […]
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) neutralizing antibodies (NAb) Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) enters into the host cells through the type I fusion (F) glycoprotein. Neutralizing monoclonal antibodies, such as Suptavumab, Palivizumab, Nirsevimab, Motavizumab, Gontivimab, and felvizumab target the major antigenic sites on the RSV F glycoprotein and neutralize the entry process. FDA approved neutralizing antibodies (NAb) […]
Rabies virus neutralizing antibodies (NAb) Rabies virus is the causative agent of the rabies. The Rabies Virus Spike Glycoproteins are the important protein responsible for the virus entry and the major target of neutralizing antibodies. GeneMedi offers the Rabies Virus Spike Glycoprotein G, Rabies Virus Surface Glycoprotein 4 (gp4) Epitope 1, Rabies Virus Strain ERA GP Ectodomain Epitope […]
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) neutralizing antibodies (NAb) Hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen (HBsAg) is considered to be the most important target for the diagnosis and immune prophylaxis of HBV infection. HBsAg-specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) are extensively used for studying the complex structure of the HBsAg, mapping the neutralizing epitopes and development of HBV diagnostic […]
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) neutralizing antibodies (NAb) The glycoprotein (gp) 120 subunit is an important part of the envelope spikes that decorate the surface of HIV-1 and a major target for neutralizing antibodies. FDA approved neutralizing antibodies (NAb) and our products 1. SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies (NAb) SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus responsible for the ongoing COVID-19 […]
SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies (NAb) SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus responsible for the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, has been spreading rampantly. The global scientific community has responded rapidly to understand immune correlates of protection to develop vaccines and immunotherapeutic against the virus. The RBD of spike plays a critical role in the very first step of the virus […]

Definition–What is neutralizing antibody (NAb)? Regarding neutralizing antibody activity, Neutralization can be achieved through four main mechanisms2: (1)NAbs binding to viral surface proteins and blocking their interaction with the host cell receptor and infection; (2)NAbs binding to viral protein epitopes that interact with host cell coreceptors that are key for viral infection; (3)NAbs binding to viral […]
How to produce neutralizing antibody (NAb) (production) Antibodies are made by B-cells in the bone marrow. Bone marrow has been long thought to be a hematopoietic organ. When B-cells are created, they begin to produce antibodies that will bind to specific antigens. Antigen-specific antibody producing, long-term lived plasma cells are largely found in the bone […]
