The Vivid Colors™ pLenti6.3/V5-GW/EmGFP Expression Control Vector is a ViraPower™ HiPerform™ positive control lentiviral vector containing Emerald Green Fluorescent Protein (EmGFP). It is designed for use with the ViraPower™ HiPerform™ Lentiviral Expression Systems as a positive control to enable the detection of higher levels of EmGFP fluorescence following transfection in 293FT cells, as a titer control to produce an EmGFP-expressing lentivirus stock and as a transduction control following transduction in both dividing and non-dividing mammalian cells. The vector has the CMV promoter for driving constitutive expression of EmGFP and the SV40 promoter for driving expression of the blasticidin stable selection marker. The vector is equipped with two key genetic elements, making them Hiperform™ vectors: the Woodchuck Posttranscriptional Regulatory Element (WPRE) and the central Polypurine Tract (cPPT) sequence from the HIV-1 integrase gene to produce at least 4-fold increase in EmGFP expression compared to vectors lacking these elements. This control vector is not designed for generating EmGFP fusion proteins and does not express the V5 epitope.

Advantages

  • Lentivirus based expression of EmGFP in dividing and non-dividing mammalian cells
  • Serve as a quick positive control for transfection and lentiviral production
  • Serve as a quick titer control in determination of lentivirus titer

Key Features

  • Constitutive expression with CMV promoter
  • High level expression of EmGFP without V5 epitope
  • WPRE and cPPT sequences produce at least 4-fold increase in EmGFP expression compared to other Lenti vectors without these elements
  • Blasticidin selection marker for stable selection

Kit Includes

  • pLenti6.3/V5-GW/EmGFP Expression Control Vector

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

I used your pLenti6.3/V5-GW/EmGFP Control Vector and got poor expression of EmGFP after stable transduction into my cell line. What should I do?

This can happen due to excess blasticidin used during selection. Determine the antibiotic sensitivity of your cell line by performing a kill curve. Use the minimum antibiotic concentration required to kill your untransduced cell line.

I used your pLenti6.3/V5-GW/EmGFP Control Vector and got no expression of EmGFP after stable transduction into my cell line. Can you please help?

This could happen due to promoter silencing or using the incorrect filter/detection parameters for flow cytometry. Screen multiple antibiotc-resistant clones and select the one with the highest expression level. Check the filter you are using as well as the FITC detection parameters.

I used your pLenti6.3/V5-GW/EmGFP Control Vector and got poor expression of EmGFP after transient transduction into my cell line. Can you please help?

Please check the following:

- Tranduction occurred in presence of Polybrene reagent
- Use a higher MOI
- Harvest cells at least 48-72 hrs after tranduction

I used your pLenti6.3/V5-GW/EmGFP Control Vector and got no EmGFP-positive cells after titering. What could have happened?

Possible causes include: incorrect filter set/incorrect detection parameters for flow cytometer, viral stocks stored incorrectly, Polybrene reagent not included during transduction, or it may be too soon to see EmGFP expression.
