THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO SELECTING THE PROPER ANTIBODIES FOR YOUR COVID-19 STUDY
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemics has sickened 3.6
million people around the world, claiming over
250,000 lives. To address this global public health
crisis, unprecedented efforts are being made to
study the culprit virus, SARS-CoV-2. The biomedical
community are working to develop rapid diagnostic
reagents, vaccines, and therapies against this virus.
To support these studies, Sino Biological has developed
a large collection of antibodies against different
antigens of SARS-CoV-2. These antibodies can be
used to detect and/or neutralize the virus in a variety of
assays including ELISA, western blot, Immunofluorescent
staining, Immunohistochemistry, SPR (Biacore and
Octet), pseudovirus infection, and potentially in vivo
animal studies.
This guide book covers all available SARS-CoV-2 antibodies offered by Sino Biological. The readers can find
technical information about their specificity and sensitivity, cross-reactivity, neutralizing potential, and their
validated applications. The overarching goal for this guide is to help the readers to choose appropriate
antibodies for their own experiments.

N-Protein
SARS-CoV-2
RBDS2
S1 ACE2
The spike protein (S-protein) is the common target for
neutralizing antibodies and vaccines. Spike protein
contains two subunits, S1 and S2. S1 contains a receptor
binding domain (RBD), which is responsible for recognizing
and binding with the cell surface receptor ACE2. S2 subunit
contains other basic elements needed for the membrane
fusion.
Same as all other coronaviruses, the genome of SARS-CoV-2 (2019-nCoV) encodes the spike protein, the envelope protein, the non-structure proteins including the proteases and methyltransferases, the membrane protein, and the nucleocapsid protein.
The Nucleocapsid Protein (N-protein) is a highly immunogenic phosphoprotein, and it is normally very conserved. The SARS-CoV-2 N protein is often used as a marker in diagnostic assays.
The methyltransferase is a non-structural protein. Methyltransferase mediates the methylation of the viral RNA, which may help the virus evade the host immune system. Methyltransferase inhibitor may work as an anti-viral treatment.
The papain-like protease (PlPro) is a protease. It mediates the post-translational processing of other non-structural proteins like replicase polyprotein. PlPro, and 3CLPro. PlPro is a target for antiviral drug development.
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) binds with the Spike protein of coronaviruses SARS-CoV and HCoV-NL63. This interaction is mediated by the RBD domain of the spike protein, and is believed to be the pivotal event in the membrane fusion process.

CROSS-REACTIVITY AND SPECIFICITY
SARS-CoV-2 shares 80% sequence identity to the 2003 SARS-CoV. Hence, antibodies raised against SARS-CoV-2
antigens often shows various degree of cross-reactivity with the corresponding antigens of 2003 SARS-CoV. On the
other hand, the similarities between SARS-CoV-2 and other members of human coronavirus are very limited. The
following three clones of anti-spike antibodies have been tested against all seven coronavirus, and are shown to be
specific to SARS-CoV-2 spike.
The reactivity of the antibodies against the known coronavirus is assessed in ELISA. The reactivity (OD450) is illustrated in the figure below.
