Covid-19 Pseudovirus Services

RayBiotech's COVID-19 pseudovirus service enables the study of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in cell culture. This service is ideal for screening patient serum for neutralizing antibodies and validating inhibitors of the Spike-ACE2 interaction.

Covid-19 Biology 101

sars-cov-2-structure
Covid-19 Proteins

The outside of the SARS-CoV-2 viral particle is composed of 4 main proteins: spike (S), envelope (E), membrane (M), and nucleocapsid (N) protein.1 The S protein is required for the virus to enter human cells.

sars-cov-2-viral-entry
Viral Entry

The virus enters the cell through interactions with transmembrane proteins ACE2 and TMPRSS2.2

Besides being expressed on the surface of cells, ACE2 is also found in the lung, small intestine, and adipose tissue.3

Immune Response

SARS-CoV-2 can trigger a "cytokine storm" in the lungs, characterized by a rapid, simultaneous release of several inflammatory proteins.4 This could explain tissue and organ damage that occurs during Covid-19.

Covid-19 Diagnosis

Antibodies, viral load, and clinical symptoms determine COVID-19 status. Physicians use two tests to achieve an accurate diagnosis: nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) that include qPCR tests and antigen tests.5

Achieve your objectives faster with custom testing services

Whether you’re short on time, short on resources, or just need a trusted expert to complete a stage in your research, we’ve got you covered. With our comprehensive suite of services, we’re excited to help you move your research and discovery studies forward.

Here are some of the top services that complement our Covid-19 products.

Discovery Proteomics Services

The discovery proteomics process allows for the identification of key proteins across multiple pathways and biological processes while minimizing time and effort. Once identified, these proteins can be verified and validated in a larger number of samples.

Design principles and service options:

  • Our assays can identify up to 6000 human, 1308 mouse, 1500 rat, 50 porcine, 30 bovine, or 500 rabbit proteins.
  • We offer two different types of array designs and can help you choose the best platform for your study needs:
    • Label-based platform for screening a large number of targets.

      We directly conjugate biotin to the proteins in your sample and detect proteins that bind to the array using a streptavidin-conjugated fluor. Because only a single antibody is used—the antibody immobilized to the slide—there is no need to optimize capture-detection antibody pairs, which removes a major constraint on array size.

    • Sandwich-based platform for sensitive detection.

      These arrays use a typical sandwich-ELISA design, where capture antibodies are printed on the slide and sample incubated with the array. Bound sample is detected by a cocktail of biotinylated detection antibodies and visualized by a streptavidin-conjugated fluor.

Publication Highlight: Researchers Trick Covid-19 with a Lung Spheroid Cell Decoy

Exploiting SARS-CoV-2’s use of the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) for host cell entry, Zhenhua, et al., (Nat Nanotechnol. 2021 Aug;16(8):942-95) created lung spheroid cell (LSC) membrane nanovesicles coated with ACE2 to act as “nanodecoys” for virus binding. Since the LSC-nanodecoys bind to the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein, they can compete with cell surface ACE2 for extracellular virus, generating LSC-nanodecoy-SARS-CoV-2 complexes that trigger a phagocytic response and viral elimination.

As a result, the LSC-nanodecoy may be able to prevent viral spread and mitigate damaging long-term effects of infection.

Furthermore, unlike SARS-CoV-2 variants that constantly mutate, ACE2 receptors on human host cells remain constant and unchanging, making this research particularly promising for treating Covid-19 throughout SARS-CoV-2 evolutions.

Zhenhua et al. used RayBiotech’s Mouse Cytokine Array C1000 to quickly and efficiently analyze their blood samples.

C-Series-Array-1000-Data

Cytokine array analysis of various inflammatory cytokines (j) in the serum 3 d after treatment: control (f), LSC-nanodecoy (g), SARS-CoV-2 mimic (h) and SARS-CoV-2 mimic plus LSC-decoy (i). IFN-γ, interferon γ; IL, interleukin; M-CSF, macrophage colony-stimulating factor; POS, positive control; TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor α.
