Genome and Gene Editing Analysis
Genome and Gene Editing Analytics
Genome editing using designer nucleases such as CRISPR/Cas9, ZFNs, and TALENs allow the targeted introduction of genetic material into a specific locus. However, undesired genome modifications potentially disrupting the functionality of otherwise normal genes may arise, thus raising safety concerns.
On- and Off-Target Analysis
ProtaGene offers a versatile and cost-effective assay for gene editing safety assessment. We adapted our Shearing Extension Primer Tag Selection Ligation-Mediated PCR (S-EPTS/LM PCR) method for the genome-wide detection and quantification of on- and off-target alterations. In combination with robust in-house bioinformatics pipelines, our assay reliably quantify the ratios between the desired targeted integration and non-desired outcomes such as translocations and indels.
Immune Repertoire Analysis
Adaptive immune response generates T cell and B cell receptors (TCRs and BCRs) that comprise an organism’s immune repertoire. Immune repertoire analysis has many applications, including cancer diagnosis, immunotherapy monitoring, gene therapy development, or infectious diseases.
The advent of high-throughput sequencing technologies have allowed for the comprehensive monitoring of the immune repertoire size, diversity and dynamics.
ProtaGene offers both PCR- and target enrichment sequencing-based approaches for the high-throughput analysis of T cell and B cell receptors from a wide range of sample input material.
