SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (N) protein expresses highly during infection, inducing strong antibody and T cell responses. Until recently, scientist thought that the N protein was exclusively localized intracellularly
In this webinar brought to you by Sartorius, Alberto Lopez-Munoz will discuss how Bio-Layer Interferometry on the Octet platform facilitated the molecular mechanism characterization behind N protein surface binding, uncovering its functions in host innate immunity to SARS-CoV-2.
Topics to be covered
- Cell surface SARS-CoV-2 N protein expression characterization
- Glycosaminoglycans as mediators of surface N protein binding
- Extracellular N protein-mediated immunomodulation
