MEF2 factors are critical regulators of embryonic development and of cardiac and skeletal muscle differentiation, controlling myocyte gene expression. In adult tissues, MEF2 proteins mediate stress-responsive transcription, including in neurons and the heart. Through these roles, MEF2 is widely studied in developmental biology, cardiovascular, and myogenic research.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Description \u0026amp; Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MEF2 Reporter Lentivirus is a transcription factor reporter system built with tandem repeats of consensus MEF2 DNA-binding elements upstream of a minimal promoter and a reporter gene, giving a sensitive fluorescent or luminescent readout of the transcriptional activity of MEF2 family factors, including MEF2A, MEF2B, MEF2C, and MEF2D. Reporter options include EGFP, GFP, mCherry, RFP, d2GFP, and firefly luciferase, with optional blasticidin or puromycin selection for stable polyclonal cell line generation. Particles are purified by PEG precipitation and sucrose gradient centrifugation and efficiently transduce difficult-to-transfect cells, including primary and thawed cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt supports stable reporter cell line generation for studying muscle differentiation, cardiac development, and stress-responsive transcription.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout This Product\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reporter lentivirus places a d2GFP, EGFP, Firefly Luc, mCherry, GFP, RFP reporter gene under the control of tandem consensus response elements specific for the MEF2 Transcription Factors transcription factor, coupled to a minimal TATA-box promoter and a proprietary upstream enhancer that maximizes signal-to-noise. The constitutively expressed selection marker (Puromycin, Blasticidin) and\/or secondary reporter enables stable polyclonal cell line generation and flexible readout by fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, or luminometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStable integration via the lentiviral backbone ensures consistent, clonally representative reporter expression in dividing and post-mitotic target cells — including primary T cells, macrophages, organoids, and cryopreserved material — eliminating the variability inherent to transient transfection. The self-inactivating LTR design and third-generation packaging minimize insertional mutagenesis risk and ensure biosafety classification at BSL-2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"LipExoGen Biotech","offers":[{"title":"GFP \/ Puromycin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53251618144621,"sku":"LTV-0068-1S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"RFP \/ Blasticidin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53310903255405,"sku":"LTV-0068-2S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Firefly Luc \/ Puromycin \/ 2x10^6","offer_id":53310903288173,"sku":"LTV-0068-3S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Firefly Luc \/ Blasticidin \/ 2x10^6","offer_id":53310903320941,"sku":"LTV-0068-4S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GFP \/ Blasticidin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53310903353709,"sku":"LTV-0068-5S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"RFP \/ Puromycin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53310903386477,"sku":"LTV-0068-6S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/LTV-0068-MEF2-Reporter-Fig1-1.jpg?v=1776934270","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/mef2-reporter-lentivirus-bhv19400063","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
