TARGATT™ iPSC Kits

Build cell-based models of disease and accelerate therapeutic development with TARGATT™ large knock-in technology in iPSCs 

Large DNA knock-ins—virtually any human cell type

Whether you are creating tomorrow’s iPSC-based treatments or building a cellular model of disease, TARGATT™ iPSC kits will simplify and accelerate cell line development when you need to knock-in and express one or more genes.

Combining the power and safety of our TARGATT™ large knock-in technology with the scalability and isogenic consistency of iPSCs, TARGATT™ iPSC Kits enable genome engineering that CRISPR, transposons, and lentivirus can’t handle.

Available TARGATT™ iPSC Kits

TARGATT™ Kits are designed to enable easy evaluation of the technology before purchasing a license.* Each TARGATT™ iPSC kit includes a human iPS cell line with the TARGATT™ landing pad already inserted into the H11 safe harbor site, a donor plasmid for the DNA you are knocking in, and a TARGATT™ Integrase expression plasmid.

TARGATT™ kits are available with iPSCs derived from male CD34+ umbilical cord blood cells (AST-9450, AST-9480, AST-9650) as well as iPSCs derived from fibroblasts from an adult female donor (AST-1602).

Contact us if you wish to purchase additional kit components.

*Academic researchers may purchase TARGATT™ technology without licensing. Request more information.

If you are interested in outsourcing genome engineering and/or differentiation, contact us for a custom service project quote.
