This antibody recognises Human Cytomegalovirus envelope glycoprotein g (HCMV gB). Human Cytomegalovirus gB also known as Envelope glycoprotein B (gB) is a protein that plays a roll in host cell entry, cell to cell virus transmission and fusion of infected

5A6 antibody might be used in the neutralisation of Human cytomegalovirus as well as in its detection via various methods. For instance, it has been demonstrated that this antibody was capable of identifying HCMV via flow cytometry (Gardner et al., 2016). Furthermore, 5A6 might be utilised in the assessment of the infection level of cells contaminated with HCMV (Gardner et al., 2016) as well in the immunoprecipitation procedures (Gardner et al., 2016).
