pCL-Eco Retrovirus Packaging Vector Summary

Specificity
Ecotropic (MoMuLV) for mouse and rat cells only (not human).
Amphotropic (from 4070A MuLV) for most mammalian cells (but not hamster).
10A1 (MuLV) for most mammalian cells (including hamster).

Applications/Dilutions

Dilutions
  • Retroviral Production reported in scientific literature (PMID 24760698)
Application Notes
The plasmid DNA contains an ampicillin resistant gene. For large scale production, this plasmid may be amplified on LB plates containing 50 ug/ml ampicillin. The liquid cultures may be grown at 100 ug ampicillin/ml.
For amplification, transform a suitable E. coli host such as HB101 or DH-5alpha and plate on LB plates containing 50-ug/ml ampicillin. For plasmid DNA preparation start culture from a single colony in LB medium containing 100 ug/ml ampicillin

Background

The pCL-ECO packaging vector is a part of the RetroMax expression system and has been designed to maximize recombinant-retrovirus titers in a simple, efficient, and flexible experimental system. By introducing a retroviral vector into a cell expressing retroviral proteins, retroviral particles (virions) are shed into the culture medium at the rate of about 1 infectious particle/cell/day. Retrovirus tropism is determined at 3 levels. The first is simply a function of viral envelope protein, gp70. The envelope determines which cells the virus will enter. gp70 comes in three different flavors for gene therapy. Retroviruses obtained by cotransfection with pCL-Eco vector will infect mouse and rat cells, but not human cells.
