Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates in general to the pseudotyping of retroviruses with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus. In particular, the invention relates to pseudotyping in MLV packaging cells which are optionally env-deleted, or in packaging cells derived from lentiviruses. Preferably, pseudotyping takes place by infection with LCMV or a preferably env-deleted mutant, or by transfection with an expression plasmid containing the gp gene of LCMV or a part thereof and optionally, in addition, the np, 1 and/or the z gene of LCMV. The invention also relates to the use of such pseudotypes for the infection of cells, particularly the use in gene therapy.
