A New System for Stringent, High-Titer Vesicular Stomatitis Virus G Protein-Pseudotyped Retrovirus Vector Induction by Introduction of Cre Recombinase into Stable Prepackaging Cell Lines

Abstract excerpt

We report here on stable prepackaging cell lines which can be converted into packaging cell lines for high-titer vesicular stomatitis virus G protein (VSV-G)-pseudotyped retrovirus vectors by the introduction of Cre recombinase-expressing adenovirus. The generated prepackaging cell lines constitutively express the gag-pol genes and contain an inducible transcriptional unit for the VSV-G gene. From this unit, the...
