Specificity: Clone EV-D68-105 is a human IgG monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the capsid of Enterovirus D68 from clades B and D. Antigen Distribution: EV-D68 can be found in human respiratory epithelial cells, gastrointestinal cells, and motor neurons within the spinal cords grey matter?. Background: EV-D68 is a highly transmissible respiratory disease that primarily impacts children. It is among the 100-plus non-polio enteroviruses and is listed as a NIAID Biodefense Priority Pathogen. The respiratory condition can vary from mild (resembling a common cold) to more severe, potentially resulting in acute flaccid myelitis (AFM), a condition characterized by lasting muscle weakness. The majority of individuals with EV-D68 encounter mild symptoms and recuperate without significant complications1. No vaccines are currently accessible for preventing EV-D68 infections, but practical measures can aid in lowering the chances of transmission. The virus is transmitted via respiratory secretions (saliva, nasal mucus, and sputum) when an infected individual coughs, sneezes or makes contact with surfaces subsequently touched by others2. Clone EV-D68-105 specifically binds to at least one of the VP proteins of the EV-D68 capsid. The capsid is made up of four viral proteins (VP1, VP2, VP3, and VP4) that are crucial for the viruss ability to bind and enter host cells. Clone EV-D68-48 clone effectively bind and neutralize the virus, specifically the clinically relevant clades B and D, preventing it from infecting cells and spreading4.
