CD BioSciences Develops GFP Services to Identify Specific Subcellular Structures

By: Get News
CD BioSciences recently announced the release of its GFP services to identify specific subcellular structures via fusing GFP to various proteins.

New York, USA - January 31, 2023 - CD BioSciences, the professional provider of C. elegans model services, is dedicated to providing the most reliable research services including C. elegans genome editing, the construction of C. elegans stress response model, aging research, drug screening, and C. elegans biology among others. With a professional team with rich experience in the fields of C. elegans research and advanced instruments, CD BioSciences recently announced the release of its GFP services to identify specific subcellular structures via fusing GFP to various proteins.

GFP reporter transgene has become a major tool for expression pattern analysis in C. elegans because several features of the worm are particularly favorable for the use of optical methods. Applications of GFP from CD BioSciences in C.elegans include analyzing gene expression patterns, determining protein localization and content, and can also aid in visual cellular anatomy, assessing the development of individual cell types in the context of specific mutations - as a cell fate marker, measuring neuronal function and plasticity, identify and isolate cells.

CD BioSciences offers an in vivo recombination method to generate GFP reporter gene constructs. This method relies on the fact that overlapping DNA fragments injected into nematodes will undergo efficient homologous recombination (regions of homology >500 bp). The strength of this approach lies not only in speed, but also in its ability to handle genomic DNA of virtually unlimited size.

CD BioSciences provides transgenic worms expressing GFP fusion proteins by generating "complex arrays". A "complex array" is formed by injecting the desired reporter gene together with a complex mixture of heterologous DNA. Furthermore, in addition to microinjection, a common technique used for DNA transformation, CD BioSciences also offers microparticle bombardment, a method of particle bombardment that provides low copy number reporter genes that are beneficial for increasing expression levels of reporter constructs.

"We offer GFP services, including GFP reporter gene construction, germline-mediated transformation by microparticle bombardment, to meet the specific needs of our clients' research." said Marcia Brady, the marketing director of CD BioSciences, she also added, "We provide a full suite of services including experimental consultation, design, execution, management, analysis and reporting dedicated to helping our clients achieve effective and successful research."
