Extra Details:
Has strong anti-HIV activity against T-tropic strains of HIV-1 and weaker activity against M-tropic strains of HIV-1. Inhibits HIV-1 fusion and infection of CD4 LTR beta-gal cells in vitro. Inhibits fusion of HIV infected CEM-SS cells with uninfected CEM-SS cells, and fusion of HIV-1 Env expressing HL2/3 cells with CD4 LTR beta-gal cells. Binds to HIV gp120, HIV gp160 and to a lesser extent HIV gp41. Binding to HIV gp120 is glycosylation dependent. Binds with high specificity to the tetrasaccharide Man-alpha-1,2-Man-alpha-1,6-Man-alpha-1,6-Man and also binds the higher-order oligosaccharides oligomannose 8 and oligomannose 9. Does not bind to monosaccharides, complex or hybrid N-linked oligosaccharides or chitin. Applications: Suitable for use in FLISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Store product at 4°C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable at -20°C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: FITC conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
