Figure Lengend Snippet: Neutralizing properties of selected antibodies against MERS-CoV pseudotyped virus in vitro. (A) Schematic representation of the neutralizing activity analysis using a pseudotyped virus assay. (B) Verification of hDPP4 expression in 293T/hDPP4 cell lines using immunoblot analysis. (C) Multiplicity of infection (MOI)-dependent infection by the MERS-CoV pseudotyped virus in 293T/hDPP4 cells. (D–G) Concentration-dependent neutralization of MERS-CoV pseudotyped virus infection in 293T/hDPP4 cells by the control IgG and selected mAbs: (D) K111.1, (E) K111.2, (F) K111.3, and (G) K111.4.
Article Snippet: This process involved six rounds of selection using M-270 epoxy Dynabeads™ (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA), which were covalently immobilized with 4 μg of recombinant His-tagged MERS-CoV RBD (RBD-His; Sino Biological, Beijing, China).
