Mouse Models

• PrimeCKO™ Conditional Knockout Mouse Models

  ---

  Applied StemCell can generate a custom conditional knockout mouse model specific to your needs using CRISPR/Cas9 or other suitable gene editing techniques to insert the 5’ and 3’ flanking LoxP sequences into the endogenous locus of your gene of interest. These conditional knockout mice can be bred with thousands of commercially available Cre-deleter mice or custom engineered Cre-expressing mice to generate your mouse model with precise control over where and when your gene is knocked out.

  • Fast (as little as 6 months) and affordable (very low price)
  • Highly efficient CRISPR protocols and validated gRNA for precise modifications
  • AAALAC-accredited animal facility
  • Animal IP belongs to customers
  • Custom Cre- mouse generation available
  • Founder guaranteed

• Site-Specific TARGATT™ Knock-in Mouse Models

  ---

  Applied StemCell Inc.’s proprietary TARGATT™ technology uses PhiC31 integrase to insert any gene of interest into a docking site that has been pre-engineered into an intergenic and transcriptionally active genomic locus.

  Advantages of TARGATT™ Technology for Knock-in Mouse Models:

  • Safe harbor locus “large fragment knock-in” (up to 22 kb)

  • High efficiency insertion (up to 40%) 

  • Single copy in an active locus

Rat Models

• PrimeCKO™ Conditional Knockout Rat Models

  ---

  Applied StemCell can generate a custom conditional knockout rat model using CRISPR/Cas9 or other suitable gene editing techniques to insert the 5’ and 3’ flanking LoxP sequences into the endogenous locus of your gene of interest. These conditional knockout rats can be bred with commercially available Cre expressing rats or custom engineered Cre expressing rats to generate your rat model with precise control over where and when your gene is knocked out.
