Lentiviral vectors are one of the most popular and useful viral vectors in the lab. Advantages of lentivirus include a large genetic capacity and the ability to transduce both dividing and non-dividing cells. Lentiviral vectors are the vector of choice for many CRISPR ...
The use of viral vectors in research is beneficial for a number of reasons, including but not limited to: helping to get difficult-to-deliver DNA into mammalian cells, increasing the efficiency of gene transduction, allowing for control over which cells are infected ...
Lentiviruses are useful and efficient tools to introduce your gene of interest into cells. Unlike gamma-retroviruses that can only infect dividing cells, lentiviruses can infect dividing and non-dividing cells. Addgene has an extensive collection of lentiviral plasmids created ...
