Polyoma virus early (PyC) Alexa Fluor® 647

Polyoma virus early Antibody (PyC) is an IgG_2b rat monoclonal Polyoma virus early antibody (also designated Polyoma virus early antibody) that detects the Polyoma virus early protein of Polyoma Virus origin by WB, IP and IF. Polyoma virus early Antibody (PyC) is available as both the non-conjugated anti-Polyoma virus early antibody form, as well as multiple conjugated forms of anti-Polyoma virus early antibody, including agarose, HRP, PE, FITC and multiple Alexa Fluor^® conjugates. The polyoma virus (Py) is a small oncogenic DNA virus that belongs to the family Polymaviridae and produces multiple tumors in the infected host. Py encodes three early proteins: large, middle and small T (tumor) antigen. Polyoma virus large T antigen (PyLT) is a nuclear phosphoprotein that helps to regulate viral replication and gene expression, allows isolation of viral T antigens, and can induce cellular DNA replication in the absence of other virus-transforming genes. Polyoma virus middle T antigen (PyMT) contains 421 amino acids and is divided into at least three domains, some of which are shared with PyLT and Polyoma virus small T antigen (PyST). PyMT is a major transforming protein responsible for inducing the phenotype of transformed cells and, without it, transformation does not occur. PyST functions in transformation and in productive infection.
