Description

General description

Self-inactivating replication incompetent viral particles are produced in packaging cells (HEK293T) by co-transfection with compatible packaging plasmids. In addition, the Control Transduction Particles are pseudotyped with an envelope G glycoprotein from Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV-G), allowing transduction of a wide variety of mammalian cells. 200 μl of 10⁶ TU/ml (via p24 titering assay) lentiviral particles are provided as frozen stock.

When conducting experiments using MISSION^® shRNA clones, the proper controls should be a key element of your experimental design to allow for accurate interpretation of knockdown results. The MISSION Control Transduction Particles are a critical positive control to monitor transduction efficiency.

Application

MISSION^® pLKO.1-puro-CMV-TagRFP^™ Positive Control Transduction Particles has been used to knockdown transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 receptor (TRPV1)-like receptors. It has also been used to generate fluorescent cell lines.

MISSION^®pLKO.1-puro-CMV-TagRFP^™ Positive Control Transduction Particles has been used in generating fluorescent cell lines by transduction. It has also been used in transfection of human dermal fibroblast (HDF), WI-38 and IMR-90 FBs to express tagRFP.

When conducting experiments using MISSION shRNA clones, the proper controls should be a key element of your experimental design to allow for accurate interpretation of knockdown results. The MISSION TagRFP Control Transduction Particles are a positive control to monitor transduction efficiency. The MISSION TagRFP Control Transduction Particles are produced from the sequence-verified 8594 base pair lentivirus plasmid, pLKO.1-puro-CMV-TagRFP (SHC012).

This construct aids in interpretation of experimental design and results by providing a red fluorescent protein marker for monitoring success in transduction of your cells of interest.
