The Spike protein of BA.4 and BA.5 variants of SARS-CoV-2 have identical mutations. In this datasheet, the spike protein of BA.4 and BA.5 are referred to as BA.4/5. The Spike (BA.4/5, Omicron Variant) (SARS-CoV-2) Pseudotyped VSV Delta G (Luciferase Reporter) was produced with SARS-CoV-2 Spike (Genbank Accession #QHD43416.1 containing all the Omicron BA.4/5 mutations; see below for details) as the envelope glycoprotein instead of VSV-G. The pseudovirions contain the firefly luciferase gene, therefore, the spike-mediated cell entry can be measured via luciferase activity. The Spike (BA.4/5 Variant) (SARS-CoV-2) Pseudotyped VSV Delta G (Luciferase Reporter) can be used to measure the activity of a neutralizing antibody against SARS-CoV-2 BA.4/5 variant in a Biosafety Level 2 facility. The Spike (BA.4/5 Variant) (SARS-CoV-2) Pseudotyped VSV Delta G (Luciferase Reporter) has been validated for use with target cells Vero-E6 and ACE2-HEK293 (BPS Bioscience #79951). Spike VSV Delta G is preferred for use in cells such as Vero-E6 and Calu-3. Spike Mutations in BA.4/5, Omicron Variant: Del69-70, T19I, LPPA24-27S, G142D, V213G, G339D, S371F, S373P, S375F, T376A, D405N, R408S, K417N, N440K, L452R, S477N, T478K, E484A, F486V, Q498R, N501Y, Y505H, D614G, H655Y, N679K, P681H, N764K, D796Y, Q954H, N969K
