Recombinant MBP tagged B. burgdorferi OspC protein

Protein-A purified and cross-adsorbed against MBP from monospecific antiserum by chromatography

This antibody is specific for Borrelia burgdorferi OspC protein. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with p39 from B. burgdorferi, afzelii, and valaisiana sources based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Partial reactivity is expected against B. japonica and americana sources based on 94% homology. Cross-reactivity with OspC from other sources has not been determined. 

ELISA (to be user optimized), WB (1:1000)
