Abstract

The field of the invention is recombinant packaging and producer cell lines for producing infectious retroviral vectors. The invention more specifically relates to the generation of pseudotyped retroviral vectors with a broad host range which can be produced at high titers in specially constructed packaging cell lines. Most specifically, the invention relates to the generation of pseudotyped retroviral vectors having vesicular stomatitis virus-G protein (VSV-G) as the membrane-associated viral envelope protein.
