Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-NS5B [1A4]
  • Clone: 1A4
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Virus
  • Host: Mouse
  • Application: IF ; WB
  • Description: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) encodes a polyprotein that is cleaved into at least 10 viral proteins namely E1, E2, core, p7, NS2, NS3, NS4A, NS4B, NS5A, and NS5B. Non-structural 5B protein (NS5B) is HCV’s RNA dependant RNA polymerase and is critical for viral replication.
