WE & pBabe gene transfer system

Relevance : Helper-free packaging cell line & shuttle vector system enabling high-titer production of recombinant retroviral vectors for mammalian gene transfer, with significantly reduced probability of replication-competent retrovirus generation
Description : WE packaging cell line and pBabe shuttle vector system enabling high-titer production of Moloney murine leukemia retrovirus gene transfer vectors
Cell Line Type / Application : Viral packaging / production line
Species / Origin : Mouse; for details of production of WE cell line and pBabe vectors see Morgenstern JP & Land H, Nucleic Acids Research, 1990, v18 pp3587-3596
Growth / Phenotype Keywords : Recombinant retroviral production
Disease Keywords : -
Recommended Growth Conditions : For recommended growth and recombinant retrovirus production conditions, see Morgenstern JP & Land H, Nucleic Acids Research, 1990, v18 pp3587-3596

Notes :

The WE and pBabe recombinant retroviral system utilises shuttle vectors with multiple drug selection markers (the pBabe vector series) for increased flexibility of gene transfer vector design, and a third generation, helper-free packaging cell line (WE) derived from mouse NIH 3T3 cell lines, enabling high-titer production of Moloney murine leukemia virus for use in mammalian gene transfer.
