Product Name Lentivirus Pseudotyped with SARS-CoV-2 Spike Glycoprotein, HexaPro Stabilized Trimer, South Africa Variant
Description Lentivirus particles pseudotyped with SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein, with hexaPro mutations so the surface protein antigenically optimal pre-fusion conformation, produced and purified from HEK 293 cells. The Sounth African has these mutations: K417N, E484K and N501Y.
Mutations Furin site RRAR mutated to GSAS; HexaPro mutations (K986P, V987P, F817P, A892P, A899P and A942P) to ensure the S glycoprotein remains in an antigenically optimal pre-fusion conformation; Sounth African mutations: K417N, E484K and N501Y
