<strong>Figure 1 Immunohistochemistry Validation of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) Envelope in COVID-19 Patient Lung</strong><br> 
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded COVID-19 patient lung tissue using anti- SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) Envelope antibody (3531, 1 μg/mL). Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 10% serum for 1 h at RT; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation with a citrate buffer (pH6). Samples were incubated with primary antibody overnight at 4˚C. A goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) at 1/250 was used as secondary. Counter stained with Hematoxylin. Strong signal of SARS-COV-2 envelope protein was observed in macrophage of COVID-19 patient lung, but not in non-COVID-19 patient lung.

<strong>Figure 2  IHC/IF Validation in COVID-19 Patient Sample  </strong><br>  (Nuovo et al., 2020)
Detection of SARS-CoV-2 proteins in nasopharyngeal swab cell preparations
F-H. Co-expression of spike detected by spike antibodies (3525) and envelope proteins detected by envelope antibodies (3531) of SARS-CoV-2 (panel F) documented localization of each protein to glandular cells with negative squamous cells two weeks after full recovery (panel G, signal yellow). No signal was seen in oral swabs of positive cases (panel H). <strong>Both the spike and envelope protein detected by anti-spike antibodies (3525,  0.2 μg/mL) and anti-envelope antibodies (3531, 2 μg/mL) produced a signal in the nasopharyngeal swabs of the three cases and no signal was evident in the nasopharyngeal swabs of the seven controls. </strong>

Further Information

Additional Names:
SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19, 2019-nCoV) Envelope Antibody: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), Envelope protein, E protein
Application Note:
IHC/IF: 1-3 μg/mL

Antibody validated: Immunohisochemistry and immunofuorescence in COVID-19 patient samples. SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19, 2019-nCoV) Envelope antibody can detect 50 ng of free peptide at 1 μg/mL in ELISA. But it cannot detect envelope recombinant protein in WB and ELISA.
Background:
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), formerly known as 2019-nCoV acute respiratory disease, is an infectious disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, a virus closely related to the SARS virus (1). The disease is the cause of the 2019?20 coronavirus outbreak (2). The structure of 2019-nCoV consists of the following: a spike protein (S), hemagglutinin-esterease dimer (HE), a membrane glycoprotein (M), an envelope protein (E) a nucleoclapid protein (N) and RNA. Envelope protein is a small polypeptide that contains at least one alpha-helical transmembrane domain. It involves in several aspects of the virus's life cycle, such as assembly, budding, envelope formation, and pathogenesis. E protein has membrane permeabilizing activity, which provides a possible rationale to inhibit in vitro ion channel activity of some synthetic coronavirus E proteins, and also viral replication (3).
