Oncoretrovirus and Lentivirus Vectors Pseudotyped with Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus Glycoprotein: Generation, Concentration, and Broad Host Range
1 Feb 2002
Abstract excerpt
Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) is a noncytopathic arenavirus shown to infect a broad range of different cell types. Here, we combined the beneficial characteristics of the LCMV glycoprotein (LCMV-GP) and those of retroviral vectors to generate a new, safe, and efficient gene transfer system. These LCMV-GP pseudotypes were systematically compared with vectors containing the widely used amphotropic...
