The invention relates to the technical field of
biology, in particular to a COVID-19 pseudovirus as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The COVID-19 pseudovirus is formed by
virus packaging of
coat protein particles and helper plasmids, wherein the
coat protein particles comprise plasmids for expressing a COVID-19 S
protein, plasmids for expressing a COVID-19 M
protein and plasmids for expressing a COVID-19 E
protein. The COVID-19 pseudovirus is packaged by adopting a three-
plasmid system, and the S / M / E protein is used for replacing expression a VSV-
G protein, so that the COVID-19 pseudovirus is stronger in infection capability and higher in sensitivity compared with the pseudovirus only containing the S protein. Moreover, the COVID-19 pseudovirus carries two fluorescentreporter groups, and different
fluorescent reporter groups can be applied to different scenes, so that the COVID-19 pseudovirus is simpler and more convenient to apply.
