CMV gB Antibody (2F12) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects CMV gB of cytomegalovirus by western blotting (WB) and immunofluorescence (IF). CMV gB, or CMV glycoprotein B, plays a crucial role in the viral life cycle as an essential component of the virion envelope, facilitating viral infection of host cells. CMV gB is not only vital for cytomegalovirus infectivity but also ranks among the most immunogenic proteins encoded by the virus, eliciting a strong immune response. A significant portion of virus-neutralizing antibodies target CMV gB, highlighting CMV gB′s importance in developing potential vaccines and therapeutic strategies against CMV infections. CMV gB′s ability to induce a robust immune response makes anti-CMV gB antibody (2F12) a key focus for research aimed at understanding viral pathogenesis and host defense mechanisms, particularly in immunocompromised individuals who face greater risk for severe disease. Anti-CMV gB antibody (2F12) serves as an invaluable tool for researchers studying CMV infection dynamics and immune responses.
