Anti-HHV6AgQ1 Antibody [119]

The Mouse monoclonal (119) antibody to HHV6AgQ1, supplied by Antibodies.com, is a research reagent directed against a Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) antigen expressed during the viral replicative cycle. HHV-6 is a betaherpesvirus that establishes lifelong latency after primary infection, with HHV-6B as the principal cause of roseola infantum in infants and both variants implicated in encephalitis, drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome, and complications in immunocompromised and transplant patients. Clone 119 is raised in mouse hosts and supplied as an IgG1 isotype in liquid format at 50 µg per vial. Because the antibody is unconjugated, it can be paired with a secondary reporter of the user's choice and used across multiple immunoassay workflows, including Western blot, immunoprecipitation (IP), immunocytochemistry and immunofluorescence (ICC/IF), flow cytometry, and ELISA, supporting detection of viral antigen in infected cell lysates, fixed monolayers, and suspension preparations. For handling, the antibody should be stored at -20 °C in single-use aliquots to limit freeze-thaw cycles and preserve binding activity. Investigators working on HHV-6A and HHV-6B tropism, chromosomally integrated HHV-6 (ciHHV-6), viral reactivation in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients, and possible links to multiple sclerosis and chronic fatigue syndrome use this reagent to characterize antigen-positive cells and quantify viral protein expression in vitro.
