Analysis Note
General description
Important note: the STEMCCA lentivirus reprogramming kits are provided in two formats, dependent on whether you are working with a human or mouse system. Human reprogramming experiments require a higher multiplicity of infection (MOI) than mouse experiments. Therefore, the larger, three-vial kits are required for human reprogramming experiments. If you are reprogramming mouse embryo fibroblast cells, you have the option to use either the one- or three-vial kit, depending on how many wells you want to infect. Reprogramming other rodent somatic cells may require more than one vial of lentivirus to perform at optimal MOI.

Millipore’s new STEMCCA lentivirus reprogramming kits make it easier than ever to generate induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Unlike traditional iPS generation which requires simultaneous co-infection by four separate expression vectors, the STEMCCA kits use a single polycistronic lentiviral vector to improve efficiency and reduce the number of viral integrations. The STEMCCA vector is comprised of the transcription factors Oct-4, Klf4, SOX-2, and c-Myc (OKSM), separated by the self-cleaving 2A peptide and IRES sequences 1,2. It is also available with flanking LoxP sites incorporated for Cre-mediated excision of the exogenous reprogramming transgenes. STEMCCA Vector Advantages: (1) Efficient: uses a single vector with four transcription factors rather than co-transducing four separate expression vectors (2) Minimizes viral integrations: single vector reduces the risks of insertional mutagenesis and viral reactivation and (3) Excisable: Cre/LoxP-regulated version enables removal of reprogramming transgenes.
