The bald lentiviral pseudovirion was produced without envelope glycoproteins such as VSV-G or SARS-CoV-2 spike. It contains the eGFP gene driven by a CMV promoter as the reporter. The bald lentiviral pseudovirion can serve as a negative control when studying virus entry initiated by specific interactions between virus particles and receptors._x000D_

The pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). As the first step of viral replication, the virus attaches to the host cell surface before entering the cell. The viral Spike protein recognizes and attaches to the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor found on the surface of type I and II pneumocytes, endothelial cells, and ciliated bronchial epithelial cells. Drugs targeting the interaction between the Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 and ACE2 may offer protection against the viral infection._x000D_<br />The SARS-CoV-2 Spike Pseudotyped Lentivirus (Luc-eGFP dual reporter) were produced by replacing the VSV-G fusion glycoprotein with SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein (Genbank Accession #QHD43416.1) as a surrogate viral envelope protein. These pseudovirions also contain a firefly luciferase and eGFP cassette (Luc-P2A-eGFP) driven by a CMV promoter. The luciferase and eGFP are coexpressed under the CMV promoter in the transduced cells. Therefore, the Spike-mediated entry into the target cell can be conveniently measured via luciferase reporter activity or eGFP expression. The SARS-CoV-2 Spike pseudotyped lentivirus can be used in a cellular assay to measure the activity of neutralizing antibody against SARS-CoV-2._x000D_

The NF-κB reporter (Luc)-Raw 264.7 cell line is designed for monitoring nuclear factor Kappa B (NF-κB) signal transduction pathways. It contains a firefly luciferase gene driven by four copies of the NF-κB response element located upstream of the minimal TATA promoter. After activation by pro-inflammatory cytokines or stimulants of lymphokine receptors, endogenous NF-κB transcription factors bind to the DNA response elements, inducing transcription of the luciferase reporter gene.

Recombinant Jurkat T-cells expressing an enhanced GFP (eGFP) gene under the control of NFAT response elements located upstream of the minimal TATA promoter. Activation of the NFAT signaling pathway can be monitored by examining eGFP expression.

The NFAT Luciferase-eGFP Reporter Lentiviruses are replication incompetent, HIV-based, VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviral particles that are ready to transduce almost all types of mammalian cells, including primary and non-dividing cells. The particles contain a firefly luciferase and eGFP cassette driven by the NFAT response element located upstream of the minimal TATA promoter (Figure 1) and a puromycin selection gene to generate stable clones. After transduction, activation of the NFAT signaling pathway in the target cells can be monitored by measuring the luciferase activity or eGFP expression.
