Spike Trimer (S1+S2) (P.1, Gamma Variant) (SARS-CoV-2): ACE2 Inhibitor Screening Colorimetric Assay

The Spike Trimer (S1+S2) (P.1, Gamma Variant) (SARS-CoV-2): ACE2 Inhibitor Screening Colorimetric Assay Kit is designed for screening and profiling inhibitors or neutralizing antibodies of  the interaction between SARS-CoV-2 Spike and human ACE2. The key to this kit is that the Spike Trimer (S1+S2) (P.1 Variant) (SARS-CoV-2) protein provides a biologically relevant model for the investigation of SARS-CoV-2/host cell interaction. The assay requires only a few steps. First, Spike Trimer (S1+S2) (Gamma Variant) (SARS-CoV-2) is coated on a 96-well plate overnight. After blocking, the protein is pre-incubated with the inhibitor or neutralizing antibody. Upon subsequent incubation with Biotin-ACE2, the plate is treated with Streptavidin-HRP followed by addition of a colorimetric HRP substrate to produce color, which can be quenched and measured using a UV/Vis microplate reader.
