The MSCV (Murine Stem Cell Virus) Retroviral Expression System contains 3 vectors that are optimized for the introduction and expression of genes in pluripotent cell lines, including murine or human hematopoietic, embryonic stem (ES), and embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells. They can also be used effectively with any mammalian cell line. After your gene of interest has been cloned into one of the vectors, the construct can be packaged into retroviral particles using the Retropack PT67 Packaging Cell Line (included).
Overview
- Efficient long-term gene expression in ES and EC cells
- Choice of three selectable markers
- Complete retroviral system including a PT67 packaging cell line
Applications
- Retroviral transduction of a broad range of cell types including embryonic stem cells and embryonic carcinoma cells
