/Vectors Expressing Color And Selectable Markers
Abstract

A system for multiplex expression of proteins in eukaryotic cells is provided wherein cells simultaneously expressing each of the proteins of the system in a cell can be selected and/or visualized. The system comprises a plurality of lentiviral based vectors that each allow for the expression of the protein of interest, and a fluorescent protein linked to a fusion peptide comprising a proteolytic cleavage site that itself is linked to an antibiotic resistance protein. Each of the vectors of the system has a separate and unique fluorescent protein encoding gene and/or a separate and unique antibiotic resistance gene.
