AAV antibodies are suitable for the characterization of different stages of an AAV infection and are effective in the analysis of the AAV assembly process. There are two categories of AAV antibodies:
(i) AAV capsid protein antibodies that specifically react with denatured AAV capsid proteins and thereby recognize the linear epitopes of the viral capsids.
(ii) AAV particle antibodies that specifically react with intact AAV particles, i.e. empty and full capsids and thereby recognize a conformational epitope of the assembled capsids of certain serotypes.
The AAV capsid protein antibodies recognize linear epitopes of the viral capsid proteins that consist of neighboring amino acids. These epitopes have high sequence similarity and therefore the antibodies detect the viral capsid proteins VP1, VP2 and VP3 across the serotypes. The antibodies are useful to study the expression levels of VP1, VP2 and VP3 in western blot analyses, in order to determine the protein localizations or protein-protein interactions by affinity chromatography, immunoprecipitation or immunofluorescence.
For more information on our specific AAV capsid protein antibodies, please see our VP1, VP1/VP2 and VP1/VP2/VP3 antibodies below.

The AAV particle antibodies recognize conformational epitopes of the viral capsid proteins that are only present on fully assembled capsids. These epitopes consist of distant amino acids either of the same protein or of different proteins that are in close proximity, and they might vary across the different serotypes. However, for some of the antibodies some cross-reactivity is known (for more information, please see the specific AAV particle antibodies by AAV serotype below). The AAV particle antibodies are useful for the following processes:

The ADK1a antibody used for the AAV1 Titration ELISA as well as the ADK1b specifically recognize assembled AAV1 capsids, hence epitopes that result from a specific conformational assembly of the capsid proteins VP1, VP2 and VP3. In the publication cited below the contact sites and footprint residues identified for ADK1a and ADK1b are described and the results are summarized in table 1. Multiple contact sites and footprint residues have been identified, that are very likely to be part of the binding site. The amino acids of each binding site are located in different parts of the protein chains and are recognized as the epitope of the antibody only in the assembled capsid where they are in close proximity to each other and in the correct conformation.
For AAV1 the neutralization epitope has been identified and might give an additional indication about the binding residues of the neutralizing antibody ADK1 used for the corresponding AAV1 Titration ELISAs.

The A20 and A20R antibodies used for the AAV2 Titration ELISAs (PRATV & PRAAV2R) specifically recognize assembled AAV2 capsid, hence epitopes that result from a specific conformational assembly of the capsid proteins VP1, VP2 and VP3. Several publications cited below describe the analysis of binding sites for the A20 antibody using different techniques. Multiple amino acids have been identified, that are very likely to be part of the binding site, especially those that were identified with more than one method (green boxes). The amino acids of each binding site are located in different parts of the protein chains and are recognized as the epitope of the antibody only in the assembled capsid where they are in close proximity to each other and in the correct conformation.
The A20 (Cat. No.61055) and the A20R antibody (Cat. No.610298S) were tested for neutralization using different antibody concentrations. After the HeLa cells were seeded in a 96-well plate they were incubated for 48h with the AAV2 particles containing a GFP reporter and the indicated concentration of the A20 or A20R antibody, respectively.
The microscopic analysis of the cells clearly demonstrates the neutralizing activity of the A20 and A20R antibody by decreasing GFP expression with increasing antibody concentration.
