Measles M Antibody (161): sc-57912

Measles M Antibody (161) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects Measles M protein of Measles Virus origin by immunofluorescence (IF). Anti-Measles M antibody (161) is available as a non-conjugated format, providing researchers with a reliable tool for studying this critical viral protein. Measles M protein plays a vital role in the viral life cycle, primarily functioning as a matrix protein that facilitates assembly and budding of the virus from infected host cells. Measles M protein is essential for maintaining structural integrity of the virus and is involved in interaction between viral envelope and nucleocapsid, which is crucial for effective viral replication and pathogenesis. Understanding Measles M protein function is important not only for elucidating mechanisms of measles virus infection but also for developing targeted antiviral therapies and vaccines. Given the highly contagious nature of Measles virus and its potential to cause severe complications, such as pneumonia and encephalitis, research into Measles M protein and its interactions is critical for public health. Measles virus, an enveloped and nonsegmented negative-stranded RNA virus belonging to the paramyxovirus family, is primarily transmitted through respiratory droplets, making Measles M protein research imperative for effective disease management and prevention strategies.
