Measles NP Antibody (2F3) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects the nucleoprotein (NP) of Measles Virus origin by western blotting (WB), immunofluorescence (IF), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Measles NP (2F3) antibody is available in a non-conjugated form, specifically designed for researchers studying the Measles virus (MV), an acute viral illness that poses significant health risks, including severe pneumonia, diarrhea, and encephalitis. The Measles virus, classified as a paramyxovirus of the Morbillivirus genus, is an enveloped, nonsegmented negative-stranded RNA virus that spreads primarily through respiratory droplets, making MV highly contagious. Upon infection, MV targets epithelial cells and can replicate in various tissues, including the urinary tract, conjunctivae, blood vessels, lymphatic system, and central nervous system. The nucleoprotein of the Measles virus plays a crucial role in MV′s structure, serving as the fundamental component of the nucleocapsid, which encapsulates the viral RNA. This protein not only provides structural integrity but also facilitates the encapsidation of the viral genome, ensuring efficient replication and assembly of new virions. Understanding the function of the nucleoprotein is vital for developing targeted therapies and vaccines, as NP is integral to MV′s life cycle and pathogenicity.
