Pseudotyped VSV-MARV-Angola Glycoprotein-ΔG-Luciferase

Product Overview

Recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Virus pseudotyped Angola marburgvirus glycoprotein (rVSV pseudotyped MARV-Angola GP) system in which the G protein of VSV has been deleted, replaced with firefly luciferase and used to produce VSV pseudotypes containing the envelope glycoprotein of Angola marburgvirus. Since the infectivity of rVSV pseudotyped MARV-Angola GP is restricted to a single round of replication, analyses of viral entry can be performed using just biosafety level 2 (BSL-2) containment. Infectivity and neutralization of infectivity can be measured by luciferase activity.
