Background: Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 5 (CEACAM5, also known as CD66e) is a cell surface glycoprotein that serves as a cell adhesion protein. It has been used as a clinical biomarker to detect liver metastasis from gastrointestinal cancers and to predict gastrointestinal cancer relapse. CEACAM5 was recently identified as a potential target antigen for CAR T-cell therapy. Additionally, CEACAM5 may be involved in the inhibition of cell differentiation, apoptosis, and cell polarity.
Description: The CEACAM5 Lentiviruses are replication incompetent, HIV-based, VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviral particles that are ready to transduce nearly all types of mammalian cells, including primary and non-dividing cells. The particles contain a human CEACAM5 (NM_004363.6) driven by an EF1A promoter and a puromycin selection marker (Figure 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 lentiviruses at -80°C.
Supplied As: Two vials (500 µl x 2) of lentivirus at a titer ≥10
7 TU/ml. The titer will vary with each lot; the exact value is provided with each shipment.
