Description: Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) was the first new infectious disease identified in the twenty-first century. It is a viral respiratory disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-1). The first known cases occurred in November 2002, and the syndrome caused the 2002-2004 SARS outbreak. Since 2004, no cases of SARS-CoV-1 have been reported worldwide. A virus very similar to SARS-CoV-1 was discovered in late 2019. This virus, named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is the causative pathogen of COVID-19, the spread of which started the COVID-19 pandemic.SARS-CoV-1 attaches to the host cell surface before entering the cell. The Spike protein on the virus recognizes and binds to the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor found on the surface of human airway epithelia as well as lung parenchyma. Drugs targeting the interaction between the Spike protein of SARS-CoV-1 and ACE2 may offer protection against the viral infection.The Spike (SARS-CoV-1) Pseudotyped Lentiviruses were produced with SARS-CoV-1 Spike (Genbank Accession #YP_009825051.1) as the envelope glycoprotein instead of the commonly used VSV-G. These pseudovirions contain the firefly luciferase gene driven by a CMV promoter, therefore, the spike-mediated cell entry can be measured via luciferase activity. The Spike (SARS-CoV-1) pseudovirus can be used to measure the activity of a neutralizing antibody against SARS-CoV-1 in a cellular context, using a Biosafety Level 2 facility.The Spike (SARS-CoV-1) Pseudotyped Lentiviruses has been validated for use with target cells ACE2-HEK293 (which overexpress ACE2; BPS Bioscience #79951).

Description: The SARS-CoV-2 Spike Pseudotyped Lentivirus were produced with SARS-CoV-2 Spike (Genbank Accession #QHD43416.1) as the envelope glycoproteins instead of the commonly used VSV-G. These pseudovirions also contain the enhanced GFP gene driven by a CMV promoter, therefore, the spike-mediated cell entry can be conveniently determined via eGFP activity. The SARS-CoV-2 Spike pseudotyped lentivirus can be used to measure the activity of neutralizing antibody against SARS-CoV-2 in a Biosafety Level 2 facility._x000D_

Description: The pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). As the first step of the 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.
