pCMV-VSV-G Retroviral Vector
Product Description
pCMV-VSV-G expresses the G glycoprotein of the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV-G) under the control of the CMV immediate-early promoter.
VSV-G is used in pseudotyping of Moloney Murine Leukenia Virus (MMLV)-based retroviral vectors by mediating viral entry. VSV-G interacts with phospholipid components of the target cell membrane and fosters the fusion of viral and cellular membranes. VSV-G does not require a cell surface receptor and can serve as a surrogate viral envelope protein.
Use the pCMV-VSV-G vector along with the pCMV-Gag-Pol vector, the 293RTV packaging cell line and a cloning / expression vector for retrovirus production.
