Introduction
HCV is a small 50nm, enveloped, single-stranded, positive sense RNAvirus in the family Flaviviridae.
HCV has a high rate of replication with approximately one trillion particles produced each day in an infected individual. Due to lack of proofreading by the HCV RNA polymerase, the HCV has an exceptionally high mutation rate, a factor that may help it elude the host's immune response. Hepatitis C virus is classified into six genotypes(1-6) with several subtypes within each genotype. The preponderance and distribution of HCV genotypes varies globally. Genotype is clinically important in determining potential response to interferon-based therapy and the required duration of such therapy. Genotypes 1 and 4 are less responsive to interferon-based treatment than are the other genotypes (2, 3, 5 and 6). -
Stability
HCV NS5 HRP although stable at 4°C for 1 week, should be stored below -18°C. Please prevent freeze thaw cycles.
-
Applications
HCV-NS5 HRP antigen is suitable for ELISA and Western blots, excellent antigen for detection of HCV with minimal specificity problems.

Introduction
HBsAg is the surface antigen of the Hepatitis-B-Virus (HBV). The capsid of a virus has different surface proteins from the rest of the virus. The antigen is a protein that binds specifically on one of these surface proteins and is commonly referred to as the Australian Antigen. HBsAg is an essential parameter to diagnose hepatitis B disease in the clinic and to monitor antiviral treatment.

Introduction
Hepatitis B virus surface gene encodes 3 proteins: small (HBs), middle (MHBs) and large (LHBs) surface protein. These 3 proteins are translated from distinct start codons, however share a common reading frame and stop codon. HBs contains 226 amino acids, it is a major viral envelope component. MHBs has extra 55 amino acids (Pre-S2) located to the N-terminus of HBs, LHBs has an additional 119 amino acids (Pre-S1). Pre-S is a region is comprised of Pre-S1 and S2, Pre-S1 has a vital role in receptor recognition, while Pre-S2 plays a part in translocation of virus into host cell. Clinically, HBV pre-S is linked with HBsAg and HBV DNA copies, which indicates active replication of virus, reduction of pre-S is typically associated with decreased HBV DNA copies, pointing to an improved predictor of treatment. In addition, Pre-S is a potential vaccine under development to enhance currently used HBsAg vaccine.

Background
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major global health concern, with approximately 71 million people infected worldwide. Chronic HCV infection can lead to liver cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and other severe liver-related complications. The nonstructural proteins NS3, NS4, and NS5 of HCV play critical roles in viral replication, assembly, and immune evasion, making them attractive targets for antiviral interventions. This research aims to characterize the recombinant forms of HCV NS3, NS4, and NS5 proteins to gain insights into their functional properties and identify potential targets for the development of effective antiviral strategies.
The primary objective of this study is to express and purify recombinant HCV NS3, NS4, and NS5 proteins using suitable expression systems. Recombinant DNA techniques will be employed to generate expression vectors harboring the respective genes, followed by expression in bacterial, yeast, or mammalian cell-based systems. The recombinant proteins will be purified using affinity chromatography or other appropriate methods, enabling subsequent biochemical and biophysical characterization.
The second objective is to investigate the roles of NS3, NS4, and NS5 proteins in HCV replication and assembly. In vitro assays will be performed to assess the enzymatic activities of NS3 protease and NS5 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). The effects of potential inhibitors or small molecules on these enzymatic activities will be evaluated. Furthermore, the interactions between NS4 protein and cellular components involved in viral assembly will be explored using protein-protein interaction assays.
The third objective is to determine the three-dimensional structures of the recombinant NS3, NS4, and NS5 proteins using techniques such as X-ray crystallography or cryo-electron microscopy. Structural information will provide valuable insights into the functional domains and potential binding sites within these proteins. These findings will aid in the design of novel antiviral compounds targeting specific regions of NS3, NS4, and NS5, with the goal of disrupting viral replication and assembly.
By characterizing the recombinant forms of HCV NS3, NS4, and NS5 proteins, this research aims to enhance our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying HCV infection. The insights gained from this study may contribute to the development of novel antiviral strategies targeting HCV, ultimately leading to improved therapeutic options for individuals affected by this persistent and debilitating viral infection.

Description
The E.Coli derived 70 kDa recombinant protein contains sequences from 4 gene products (proteins) of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) were scanned by using 3 different PCR-based techniques in search of the most immunoreactive regions suitable for the development of a diagnostic test for the detection of anti-HCV in human sera. All PCR fragments were cloned with pGEX4-2T expression vector and expressed in E. coli as chimeric proteins with glutathione S-transferase. The most diagnostically relevant proteins identified in this study were then contructed into one recombinant antigen. The protein contains the HCV nucleocapsid, NS3 genotype 1b, NS4 genotype 1b and 1a, and NS5 genotype 1b and 1a immunodominant regions.

HCV has a high rate of replication with approximately one trillion particles produced each day in an infected individual. Due to lack of proofreading by the HCV RNA polymerase, the HCV has an exceptionally high mutation rate, a factor that may help it elude the host's immune response. Hepatitis C virus is classified into six genotypes(1-6) with several subtypes within each genotype. The preponderance and distribution of HCV genotypes varies globally. Genotype is clinically important in determining potential response to interferon-based therapy and the required duration of such therapy. Genotypes 1 and 4 are less responsive to interferon-based treatment than are the other genotypes (2, 3, 5 and 6). -
Stability
HCV although stable at 4°C for 1 week, should be stored below -18°C. Please prevent freeze thaw cycles.
-
Applications
HCV Antigen is suitable for ELISA and Western blots, excellent antigen for detection of HCV with minimal specificity problems.
-
Specificity
Immunoreactive with sera of HCV-infected individuals.
-
Purification Method
HCV protein was purified by proprietary chromatographic technique.

Introduction
HBsAg is the surface antigenof the Hepatitis-B-Virus (HBV). The capsidof a virus has different surface proteins from the rest of the virus. The antigen is a protein that binds specifically on one of these surface proteins. It is commonly referred to as the Australian Antigen.
-
Physical Appearance
Sterile filtered colorless solution.
-
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
