General Notes
Mouse anti Adenovirus hexon antibody, clone 1431 recognises the hexon group antigen present in most adenovirus serotypes.Hexon protein is a major coat protein of adenoviruses. Adenoviruses capsids have three principal protein components: the hexon, the penton, and the fiber. Hexon consists of three subunits together forming two major components of different morphological symmetry. A triangular top with three towers of density is superimposed on a more bulky pseudo hexagonal base.Clone 1431 has been shown to react with 34 serotypes of Adenovirus including types 40 & 41. Clone 1431 is non-reactive with Influenza A, Influenza B, RSV, Para 1, 2 & 3, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, H. pylori and mammalian cells. Crossreactivity data available for this clone.
