Absolute Antibody

Anti-ZIKV EDII [G9E]

9

This antibody binds to ZIKV and does not cross-react with DENV4, which was tested as a representative DENV serotype. Its epitope is distinct from the A9E anti-ZIKV antibody.

This antibody has very strong neutralizing properties against Asian and African lineages of ZIKV (Collins et al., 2019). Furthermore, this antibody was effective in preventing Zika infection when administered from one day before the infections in mice (Collins et al., 2019). Therefore, A9E is recommended in development of diagnostic assays which differentiate ZIKV from other flaviviruses (it does not crossreact with DENV) and in the development of therapeutics and vaccines against ZIKV.
