Description

The recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (rVSV-ΔG) reverse genetics pseudotype system is widely used to generate rVSV particles that express the surface glycoprotein protein of a heterologous virus. This is a particularly powerful tool to study viruses that require high level biosafety containment (BSL-3 and BSL-4) such as Coronaviruses and Filoviruses1,2, as it generates virus that is restricted to a single round of replication, making them BSL-2 level compatible. This virus is pseudotyped with the S glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2 (D614G) and contains a 16 amino acid deletion in the C-terminus3.
