Cellecta's Lentiviral Packaging Mix Outperforms Competitors'!

Recently, one of our customers compared our lentiviral packaging mix with packaging mixes from two competitors. The same lentiviral vector that expresses firefly luciferase was used in all three packaging protocols. Each lentivector was packaged according to the manufacturer's instructions in 293T cells. Collected virus was used fresh to transduce 293T cells for 48 hr. Firefly luciferase activity was assayed using a standard protocol and compared to untransduced cells.

Gene Expression Profiling of Single-Cell Samples: DriverMap Targeted Expression Profiling vs SMART Technology

Single-cell expression analysis provides insights about gene expression and cell heterogeneity at the single-cell level. It enables the elucidation of intracellular gene regulatory networks and intracellular pathways that would otherwise be masked in bulk analysis (Massaia et al., 2018). The DriverMap™ Targeted Gene Expression Profiling (TXP) assay combines highly multiplexed RT-PCR amplification with the depth and precision of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) to quantitatively measure gene expression of up to 19,000 target genes in a single assay–even down to the single-cell level.

Comparing DNA vs. RNA Samples for Immune Repertoire Profiling

Adaptive immunity relies on B and T cells that recognize foreign antigens via hypervariable B cell and T cell receptors (BCRs and TCRs). Diversity among B cell and T cell receptors is primarily produced by V(D)J recombination, which involves the shuffling and joining of the variable (V), diversity (D), joining (J), and constant region (C) gene segments. This results in a diverse repertoire called the adaptive immune repertoire (AIR) that comprises multiple individual clonotypes (sequence) for particular receptor chains.
