Description Integrase is an enzyme produced by the HIV which enables its genetic material to be integrated into the DNA of the infected cell and is a key component in the pre-integration complex. HIV integrase contains 3 domains, an N-terminal HH-CC zinc finger domain which is partially responsible for multimerization, a central catalytic domain and a C-terminal domain. Both Central catalytic domain and C-terminal domains have been shown to bind both viral and cellular DNA. No crystal structure data exists with Integrase bound to its DNA substrates. HIV-1 integrase functions as a dimer or a tetramer. Additionally, several host cellular proteins interact with integrase and may facilitate the integration process. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to a non-glycosylated polypeptide chain, containing the HIV-1 immunodominant regions from the p31 protein (intergrase), aa9-289, with a GST-tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli. Specificity: Immunoreactive with all sera of HIV-1 infected individuals. Applications: Suitable for use as an antigen in ELISA and Western Blot, excellent for early detection of HIV seroconvertors with minimal specificity problems. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
