"CRISPR-Cas9 Specificity: Taming Off-target Mutagenesis" Technical bulletin

22/05/2014 by Philippe Fixe, PhD No Comments
CRISPR/Cas 9 Genome editing and Engineering

The CRISPR (Clustered, Regularly Interspaced, Short Palindromic Repeats)-Cas (CRISPR-associated) (CRISPR-Cas) system has become trendy as it is suitable for numerous applications such as gene knockouts, genome-engineering, to name but a few. In a recent Technical Bulletin, Ed Davis describes the mechanism of CRISPR-Cas for genome editing and how the recent experimental improvements improve CRISPR-Cas9 specificity while reducing off-target effects.

XCell Sciences - tebu-bio Human Stem Cell & CNS Research

Access to neural cellular models for in vitro Neuroscience research enters into a new era.

XCell Science, experts in cellular and genome engineering, provide genetically modified cellular models differentiated from Human induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC) lines. tebu-bio bring its scientific and logistics skills to deliver in Europe these high-quality and characterized neural cell derivatives for R&D, drug discovery, toxicology and regenerative medicine approaches.

Unlimited sources of biologically relevant functional neural cells

Proprietary high-efficiency protocols allow the directed differentiation of these iPS lines into a variety of functional neural cells, such as:A large collection of neural cells (XCell Science - tebu-bio)

  • Neural Stem Cells (NSC),
  • Neurons,
  • Dopaminergic neurons,
  • Astrocytes.

Disease-specific knock-out isogenic neural cell lines

tebu-bio’s experts are pleased to introduce a collection of isogenic knock-out iPSC lines mimicking genetic defects identified in CNS disorders (Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, Autism, Schizophrenia and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)):

  • BDNF-/-: Homozygous knockout of the BDNF gene,

1 simple way to rapidly quantify Collagen: Sircol Collagen Assay

16/05/2014 by Philippe Fixe, PhD No Comments
Colorimetric protein Assay plate

Collagen is a structural protein expressed in mammalian tissues (ex. skin, muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilages, blood vessels…).  Together with Elastin and Keratin, Collagen fibres give connective properties to mammalial tissues ensuring their physiological form but also firmness, strength and flexibility. Needless to say, Collagen is trendy… a simple search in Google using the term “Collagen” clearly shows the economical dimension of this protein in well-being.
