CMV gB Antibody (5E258) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects CMV gB of cytomegalovirus (CMV) 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 virus infection of host cells. CMV gB (5E258) monoclonal antibody recognizes one of the most immunogenic proteins encoded by CMV, which elicits 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. Understanding CMV gB function remains critical, especially in immunocompromised individuals, where CMV can lead to severe health complications. Anti-CMV gB antibody (5E258) serves as an invaluable tool for researchers studying CMV pathogenesis and immune responses, providing insights that could lead to improved clinical outcomes for affected patients.
