Human cytomegalovirus (CMV), also called Human herpesvirus, is a member of the herpes virus family and shares the characteristic ability to remain latent within the body for life within an infected individual. Although a CMV infection is typically asymptomatic in healthy persons, immunocompromised individuals such as AIDS patients, organ transplant recipients, and newborn infants, are at high risk of developing life-threatening complications from primary infections and reactivations. Most people (85%) have been infected by CMV by 40 years of age. Recombinant protein corresponding to aa426-606 from Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Pp150 (UL32), fused to GST-Tag, expressed in E. coli. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
