Lentiviral vector systems for constitutive gene expression

Lentiviral vectors with CMV or EF1 alpha promoters for constitutive gene expression

These lentiviral expression systems are designed for constitutive gene expression from either a CMV or EF1-alpha promoter.

These lentiviral expression systems are designed for constitutive gene expression from either a CMV or EF1-alpha promoter.

Biscistronic options

The IRES Vectors included with the bicistronic lentiviral expression systems each contain a multiple cloning site located upstream of the IRES from which a selection marker is expressed. Because your gene of interest and a selection marker are translated from a single RNA, you can be certain that nearly 100% of the colonies that are resistant to puromycin, hygromycin, and G418 also express your protein of interest.

Fluorescent protein options

For lentiviral vectors that express fluorescent protein tags and markers, including the bicistronic pLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1 and pLVX-IRES-mCherry vectors, see our Fluorescent Lentiviral Expression Vectors webpage.

EF1-alpha promoter versions

Lenti-X lentiviral vector systems with EF1-alpha promoters allow you to achieve robust, constitutive, long-term expression of your gene of interest in cell types in which CMV promoters are often silenced, such as hematopoietic and stem cells.

Lentiviral packaging system included

Many of our lentiviral systems are complete systems that include our high-titer Lenti-X Packaging Single Shots (VSV-G) when used with the Lenti-X 293T Cell Line (not included), generates titers that are far superior to those of other commercially available lentiviral packaging systems. Frequently, an entire dish of target cells can be effectively transduced using just 10–100 µl of unconcentrated viral supernatant.

The Lenti-X Bicistronic Expression Systems enable you to produce high-titer recombinant lentivirus for the purpose of transferring genes into dividing or non-dividing mammalian cells. The pLVX-IRES-Puro Vector contains an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) followed by a drug resistance marker, so that your gene of interest and puromycin resistance are simultaneously coexpressed from a single mRNA transcript. The Lenti-X packaging system is a proprietary combination of plasmids that collectively expresses all the viral proteins necessary for assembling the vector into infectious virions. Lenti-X Packaging Single Shots, which contain lyophilized Lenti-X packaging plasmids and transfection reagent, are used for efficient introduction of the packaging plasmids and the pLVX-IRES-Puro Vector into Lenti-X 293T Cells (Cat. No. 632180; not included) to produce lentivirus. These optimized reagents allow the transfected Lenti-X 293T cultures to produce high titers of VSV-G pseudotyped lentivirus that is both safe and replication-incompetent, and able to transduce virtually any cell type. The Lenti-X GoStix can be used to determine whether virus production is within a usable range or for selecting the best time to harvest your virus. The system provides enough reagents for 16 packaging reactions.

The Lenti-X Expression System enables you to produce exceptionally high titers of recombinant lentivirus for expression of any cDNA in any cell type susceptible to lentivirus transduction. The Lenti-X packaging system is a proprietary combination of plasmids that collectively expresses all the viral proteins necessary for high-efficiency packaging of lentiviral vector transcripts into infectious lentivirus particles. Lenti-X Packaging Single Shots, which contain lyophilized Lenti-X packaging plasmids and transfection reagent, are used for efficient introduction of the packaging mix and the pLVX-Puro Vector into 293T cells with very high efficiency. The concerted effects of these components allow 293T cells to produce high-titer replication incompetent lentiviral supernatants for a safe transduction of virtually any cell type. The Lenti-X GoStix can be used to determine whether virus production is within a usable range or for selecting the best time to harvest your virus. The system provides enough reagents for 16 packaging reactions.

The Lenti-X Expression System (EF1α Version) enables you to produce exceptionally high titers of recombinant lentivirus for expression of any cDNA in any cell type susceptible to lentiviral transduction. The System contains an HIV-1-based, lentiviral expression vector, pLVX-EF1α-IRES-Puro, designed to constitutively express a protein of interest and puromycin resistance (Puror). Constitutive expression of these proteins is driven by the human elongation factor 1 alpha (EF1α) promoter, which allows protein expression in mammalian cells in which the CMV promoter is silenced. The System also includes Lenti-X Packaging Single Shots (VSV-G) and Lenti-X GoStix.
