The Retro-X System is a complete retroviral gene expression system for introducing stable heritable genetic material into mammalian cell lines. This system can be used to infect dividing cells from a broad range of mammalian cell lines.
Overview
We recommend the Retro-X Universal Packaging System for most applications
This system produces the highest titers
GP2-293 cells are easy to transfect which leads to very high titers
It is supplied with all four commonly used envelopes for great flexibility (including VSV-G and Eco)
Retrovirus is produced by transient transfection of the envelope vector and retrovirus vector
Use RetroPack cells if you wish to create a stable producer cell line
All retroviral packaging cell lines and systems are compatible with all retroviral vectors sold by Takara Bio, including all MMLV- and MSCV-based retroviruses.
