VRC-01
Based on 1 Customer Validation
VRC-01 is a broadly neutralizing IgG1 monoclonal antibody that targets HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp120 Protein. VRC-01 blocks HIV-1 viral entry by mimicking CD4 receptor interaction with HIV-1 gp120 and neutralizes broad HIV-1 clades. VRC-01 can be used for the research of HIV-1 infection.

In Vitro
VRC-01 binds HIV-1 gp120 IIIB with Kd values of 1.68 nM and 1.39 nM for transient and stable tobacco plant-produced VRC-01, respectively[2].
VRC-01 (1-24 h) from transient and stable tobacco plants neutralize HIV-1 BaL in TZM-bl cells with IC50 values of 0.339 μg/mL and 0.407 μg/mL, respectively[2].
VRC-01 (1-48 h) from transient tobacco plants neutralizes a panel of 10 HIV-1 Env pseudoviruses (clades A, B, C, G), while stable plant-produced VRC-01 shows slightly reduced potency against the same panel[2].

Research Protocol for Infectious Diseases
Infectious-disease experiments test how pathogens interact with host barriers, innate immune receptors, inflammatory signaling, pathogen replication, and tissue injury; pattern-recognition receptors such as TLRs, RIG-I-like receptors, NOD-like receptors, and inflammasomes detect microbial molecules and activate NF-κB, interferon, and cytokine responses. The central hypothesis is that infection severity reflects the balance between pathogen burden and host response: protective inflammation restricts pathogen growth, whereas excessive or mislocalized inflammation contributes to tissue damage and disease phenotype. Unresolved questions include which host pathways are protective versus pathogenic, why some infection models fail to translate to human disease, and which combined readouts best predict clinically relevant infection outcomes.
