Welcome!
Established in late 2017, UT Health San Antonio Rodent Genome Engineering Core delivered its first genetically edited mouse line on January 2018. From a handful amount of received and completed Genetically Engineered Mouse Model (GEMM) system projects, we successfully cloned over 20 GEMM lines in 2019, and our success, commitment, and recognition are in constant growth.
Our services are summarized below.
GEMM Services:
(Our goal is to provide the service requester with at least 2 to 3 founders; germline transmission can be verified for an additional fee)
Transgenic Mouse Service (up to 3 sessions of micro-injection/~300 transferred 2 cell embryos)
Gene Targeting Service* (up to 3 sessions of micro-injection/~300 transferred 2 cell embryos)
*includes project planning, crRNA toxicity test, In/Del check, and founder genotyping
Other Services:
As we move forward, we will be providing Rat Genome Engineering service as well in near future.
