Viral proteins are indispensable for understanding the biology of viruses and their interactions with host cells. Our recombinant viral proteins are designed to support research in the following key areas:
Host Cell Recognition and Invasion: Viral surface proteins, such as spike proteins, facilitate viral entry into host cells by binding to specific receptors. For example, our SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is widely used to study ACE2 receptor interactions and viral entry mechanisms. Genome Replication and Transcription: Viral enzymes, such as polymerases and proteases, are critical for replicating viral genomes and producing viral mRNA. Our HIV reverse transcriptase and HCV NS3/4A protease are essential tools for studying viral replication and screening antiviral compounds. Viral Particle Assembly and Release: Structural proteins, such as HIV Gag and influenza HA, drive the assembly and release of new viral particles. These proteins are vital for understanding viral life cycles and developing assembly inhibitors. Immune Evasion: Viral proteins often manipulate host immune responses to ensure viral survival. Our DENV NS1 and EBOV GP proteins are used to study immune evasion strategies and develop immune-based therapies. Modulation of Host Cell Functions: Viral proteins can alter host cell metabolism, apoptosis, and signaling pathways to create a favorable environment for viral replication. Our recombinant proteins enable researchers to investigate these mechanisms and identify potential therapeutic targets.
