B-13 Tol1 Gene Transfer System
ΓùÅ Tol1 is a DNA-based transposable element. Simplicity and safety of usage in comparison with RNA-mediated elements and retroviruses. ΓùÅ High Capacity; maximum cargo capacity is >20kb.ΓùÅ Universal use: available for fish, frog and mammalian cells, such as mouse, human and possibly also for other mammals.
Biological Tool for gene engineering and gene therapy.
The Tol1 gene transfer system consists of two plasmids. One is Tol1 donor (pDon) and the other is transposase plasmid (pHel). For the generation of founder transgenic fish, pDon and pHel are co-injected into fish or frog embryos or mammalian cells.
