U-Blot® HSV gD/Envelope glycoprotein D Recombinant Antibody (E317)

Background：Envelope glycoprotein D is a ~43 kDa protein. Envelope glycoprotein that binds to the host cell entry receptors NECTIN1, TNFRSF14/HVEM and 3-O-sulfated heparan sulfate, promoting the virus entry into host cells. May trigger fusion with host membrane, by recruiting the fusion machinery composed of gB and gH/gL.
