| Key features and details | |
| Cat. No. | MABL-2589 | 
| Name | Anti-PA anthrax mAbs | 
| Clone No. | AFD- W5 | 
| From | Recombinant Antibody | 
| Isotype | Engineer antibody | 
| Application | ELISA | 
| Species Reactivity | Bacillus anthracis | 
| Basic Information | |
| Specificity | This antibody recognizes protective antigen (PA) of anthrax toxin. PA binds to a receptor (ATR) in sensitive eukaryotic cells, thereby facilitating the translocation of the enzymatic toxin components, edema factor and lethal factor, across the target cell membrane. | 
| Alternative Name | protective antigen; PA; Anthrax toxins translocating protein; PA-83; PA83; anthrax toxin | 
| UniProt | P13423 | 
| Immunogen | The original scFv version of this antibody was isolated from a phage display library generated from immunized chimpanzees. | 
| Application Notes | The original scFv version of this antibody was confirmed to strongly bind anthrax protective antigen (PA) via ElISA (Chen et al., 2006; pmid: 16453257). | 
| Antibody First Published | Chen et al. Efficient Neutralization of Anthrax Toxin by Chimpanzee Monoclonal Antibodies against Protective Antigen J Infect Dis. 2006 Mar 1; 193(5): 625–633. PMID:16453257 | 
| Note on publication | Describes the generation and characterization of anti-PA and anti-LF anthrax antibodies. |
