Characterization of VSVΔG*SARS-CoV-2 spike particles. (A) Immunoblotting for both rVSVΔG-GFP*G (control) and pseudotyped SARS-CoV-2 viruses were performed to verify the incorporation of FLAG-tagged Spike glycoprotein into the rVSVΔG. Shown are representative cellular images (B) of rVSVΔG-GFP*G and rVSVΔG-GFP*SARS-CoV-2 particle inoculation into 293T-ACE2+TMPRSS2 with and without Anti-VSV-G (2 μg/mL). After 24 h, the GFP signal from 25 images per well was quantified from IncuCyte scan, and normalized to cellular area (C), and by qPCR from a single well and normalized to GAPDH (D). Infection values are presented as % GCU to signal from corresponding control group, or as transcript levels. GCU: Green Calibrated Units. Scale bar: 100 μm. Data are mean ± SEM. ****p < 0.0001 using One-Way ANOVA with Tukey's post-hoc test. Each experiment was replicated at least three times.
