EBV Early Antigens / Alexa Fluor 405 / 1108-1

Product Details

Description	Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), also designated human herpesvirus 4 (HHV-4), is a member of the herpesvirus family and is one of the most common human viruses. EBV infects B cells and, though often asymptomatic, it can cause infectious mononucleosis, a disease characterized by fatigue, fever, sore throat and muscle soreness. The EBV-induced early antigens (Ea) are among several antigen complexes that have been identified in EBV-infected cells. The Ea complex is composed of diffuse (Ea-D) and restricted (Ea-R) components. The activity of Ea-D is suppressed during latent infection. BMRF1, the gene that encodes for Ea-D, is closely associated with the gene encoding for EBV DNA polymerase, and Ea-D is essential for the activity of this polymerase. Ea-D forms a complex with EBV DNase and, together, they may play a role in viral replication.

About Alexa Fluor 405
Alexa Fluor™ 405 (AF405, Alexa 405) has an excitation peak at 401 nm and an emission peak at 421 nm and is similar in size, brightness and application to V450 (BD Biosciences), Vio®Blue® (Miltenyi Biotec), Cascade Blue® (ThermoFisher Scientific), Pacific Blue® (ThermoFisher Scientific). Alexa 405 is most commonly used in flow cytometery, and fluorescence microscopy applications.
