Description This Ebola virus envelope glycoprotein is initially produced as a precursor known as pre-GP, which is cleaved by furin into two subunits, GP1 and GP2, which remain associated through a disulfide linkage between Cys53 of GP1 and Cys609 of GP2. This heterodimer assembles into a 450kD trimer at the surface of nascent virions. The virion-attached GP is critical in the EBOV life cycle, as it is solely responsible for attachment, fusion and entry of target cells. Moreover, GP is responsible for critical pathogenic differences among viral species. The role of Ebola virus envelope glycoprotein in EBOV pathogenesis is unclear, but is examined in detail by Lee and Saphire (2009). Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to Ebola virus envelope glycoprotein (GP1), derived from the GP1 sequence, Ile33-Arg501, fused to 6xHis-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in HEK293 cells. The predicted N-terminus is Ile33. Subtype: Zaire Strain: Kikwit-95 Molecular Weight: ~51.6kD, DTT-reduced protein migrates as ~120-140kD in SDS-PAGE Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Stable for 12 months after receipt at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O or PBS. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
