Transgenic & Gene Modification, DRTC - Johns Hopkins University/University of Maryland

DRTC Baltimore Transgenic/ES Cell Core :

The aim of the Transgenic/ES Cell Core will be to accelerate research programs that depend on the development of genetically altered mouse models, including transgenics, knock-outs, knock-ins, and inducible knock-outs. The goal of the Transgenic/ES Cell core is to enable Baltimore DRTC investigators to efficiently generate genetically altered mice including transgenic, knock-out or knock-in mouse models.

The Transgenic/ES Cell Core objectives:

• Provide advice and guidance in the use of transgenic, knock-out and knock-in mice for diabetes and diabetes-related research
• Generate transgenic mouse strains
• Generate gene knock-out and knock-in mouse strains
• Provide embryo freezing and storage capabilities for Investigators
