About Us
The Transgenic Core is a state-of-art facility that produces genetically altered mice, cryopreserves embryos and sperm, and will reconstitute mouse lines from other institutions via IVF from frozen sperm or thawing and transferring frozen embryos.
Our Technology
Since 2017, most transgenic mice produced by the Core have used CRISPR technology. The method is simple and requires little or no molecular biology skills; hence, it is accessible to all labs.
Our Services
- DNA (CRISPR) gene modification and targeting in mouse embryos
- Embryonic Stem Cell Injections into mouse blastocysts for gene modification and targeting
