COVID 19 Pseudoviral Particles D614G-N501Y Coronavirus Reagent | COVID-19 reagent
SARS-CoV-2 Pseudoviral Particles, D614G-N501Y
Coupled with firefly luciferase assay kit (Catalog # MBS434279), the pseudovirus infection generates robust chemiluminescent signals, 1) for screening potential inhibitor to block SARS-CoV-2 entry and viral protein translation; 2) for measuring the activity of and screening for neutralizing antibody against SARS-CoV-2-614G-N501Y (refer to the Neutralization Assay Application Note).
2. HEK293-hACE2 stable cells are available seperately (Cat.# MBS434276)
Easy to use: Amenable to HTS format (96-well, 384-well and 1536-well format)

The SARS-CoV-2 Pseudoviral Particles are replication-deficient Maloneymurine Leukemia Virus (MLV) pseudotyped with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein of the 20E (EU1) variant carrying (Genbank Accession # QHD43416.1, p.501N-->Y, p.614D-->G).
It has been known that SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) uses human ACE2 as the entry receptor and human proteases as the entry activators. The virus surface spike (S) protein mediates SARS-CoV-2 entry into cells. To fulfill its function, SARS-CoV-2 spike binds to the human ACE2 (hACE2) receptor through its receptor-binding domain (RBD) and then proteolytically activated by host proteases.
Our SARS-CoV-2 Pseudoviral Particles are replication-deficient MLV pseudotyped with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. They also contain the ORF for firefly luciferase as a reporter. They establish a pseudovirus entry assay for SARS-CoV-2 as the S protein mediated cell entry can be conveniently measured via the luciferase reporter activity. This pseudovirus assay isolates the SARS-CoV-2 viral entry from other steps of the viral infection cycle.
A new SARS-CoV-2 strain with an amino acid change at position 501 from Asn to Tyr besides the change at position 614 from Asp to Gly in the viral S protein predominated over time in locales where it was found. To support the study of this new SARS-CoV-2 strain, we established this SARS-CoV-2-614G-N501Y Pseudoviral Particles with the spike protein carrying the 501Y and 614G genotype (Genbank Accession #QHD43416.1, p.501 N->Y, p.614 D->G)

Product Notes
The COVID-19 (Catalog #AAA434296) is a Reagent and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. Works perfectly for Luc pseudovirus to get robust signals 1) for screening potential inhibitors to block SARS-CoV-2 entry and viral protein translation with spike protein of SARS-CoV-2; 2) for measuring the activity of and screening for neutralizing antibody against SARS-CoV-2. Coupled with firefly luciferase assay kit (Catalog # MBS434279), the pseudovirus infection generates robust chemiluminescent signals, 1) for screening potential inhibitor to block SARS-CoV-2 entry and viral protein translation; 2) for measuring the activity of and screening for neutralizing antibody against SARS-CoV-2-614G-N501Y (refer to the Neutralization Assay Application Note). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the COVID-19 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "COVID 19 Pseudoviral Particles D614G-N501Y Coronavirus, Reagent" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
