About this item
Stimulating T cells with SARS-CoV-2 (Spike Protein) Omicron/B.1.1.529 WT reference peptide pool releases downstream cytokines and upregulates activation markers, enabling antigen-specific T cells to be detected or isolated for analysis. This peptide pool is a lyophilised mixture of 82 peptides from the spike glycoprotein of the wild-type SARS-CoV-2 virus. Consisting of the wild-type peptides that correspond to the mutated portions of the spike protein found in the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant (B.1.1.529), this pool is recommended to be used as a reference for the SARS-CoV-2 (Spike Protein) Omicron/B.1.1.529 mutation peptide pool. Through interactions with the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, the spike protein enables the virus to attach to the cell membrane, and plays a critical role in viral entry (Hoffmann et al.; Walls et al.). Viral peptide pools are useful for a broad range of applications, including vaccine development, immunological research, and diagnostic assay development.
