Enhanced GFP Lentivirus (G418)

Products from BPS Bioscience require a minimum order value above 400€

Applications: • Ideal as a positive control for transduction; useful for optimizing transduction assays and to track transduction efficiency over time.• Generation of stable cell line expressing eGFP with geneticin (G418) selection.

Description: Enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) is a modified (F64L and S65T mutations) version of the native GFP protein isolated from jellyfish (Aequorea victoria), with increased fluorescence and more efficient folding. The Enhanced GFP Lentivirus are replication-incompetent, HIV based, VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviral particles that are ready to be transduced into almost all types of mammalian cells, including primary and non-dividing cells. These viruses constitutively express eGFP under a CMV promoter ). eGFP expression and transduction efficiency can easily be verified and optimized via fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry. eGFP has an excitation wavelength of 488 nm, an emission wavelength of 509 nm, and extinction coefficient of 55,000 M^-1cm^-1.

Formulation: The lentivirus particles were produced from HEK293T cells. They are supplied in cell culture medium containing 90% DMEM + 10% FBS.

Storage Stability: Lentiviruses are shipped with dry ice. For long term storage, it is recommended to store the virus at -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Titers can drop significantly with each freeze-thaw cycle.

Supplied As: Two vials (500 µl x 2) of lentivirus at a titer ≥10⁷ TU/ml. The titer will vary with each lot; the exact value is provided with each shipment.

Warnings: Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.

Biosafety Level: BSL-2
