— Two shuttle vectors, pCA-UC118 and pCB-SC101, capable of replication in both Synechocystis 6803 and E. coli. Expression of reporter proteins were significantly enhanced in cells containing these new plasmids, thus providing superior gene expression platforms in this cyanobacterium. Publication: …
— An UPAB1 derivative, UPAB1p-, that spontaneously loss pAB5 was identified by detection of restored Hcp secretion and isolated via an ELISA. Compared to wildype UPAB1, UPAB1p- displayed comparable growth in vitro in both rich medium and urine from healthy donors, indicating that less pAB5 did not in…
— pSL2231 is a derivative of pBR322 that can be used to delete the nblA gene in Synechococcus UTEX 2973. Publication: Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973, a fast growing cyanobacterial chassis for biosynthesis using light and CO2
— Irg1−/− mice were generated after receiving embryonic stem cells (ESCs) from the Knockout Mouse Project Repository containing an insertion cassette between exons 3 and 4. This cassette prevents transcription of downstream exons 4 and 5 and production of mature protein. Irg1−/&minu…
— Technology Description Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed new compounds that may be used to treat alcohol use disorder (AUD). AUD, a common condition that takes a high personal and public health toll, is characterized by severe problems with drinking- sufferers may co…
— Technology Description Researchers in Prof. Mario Feldman’s laboratory have developed a patented, versatile, cost-effective platform for creating new multivalent vaccines for a variety of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. This technology, glycoengineered outer membrane vesicles (geOM…
— Background: Recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) has successfully been used to create a vaccine for Ebola virus that is currently on the market. Previously, Professor Sean Whelan and colleagues have exploited the VSV platform to create similar vectors for both SARS and MERS. Technology: The…
— Technology Description An interdisciplinary team of researchers has developed a photoacoustic near-infrared (PANIR) probe to predict preterm birth by quantifying water content in cervical tissue (an early and objective indicator of cervical remodeling). This compact photoacoustic endoscopy probe u…

— Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV) is an emerging infectious disease in South America transmitted by mosquitos. VEEV usually resides in forest and swamp areas where human populations are limited, however, VEEV has the potential to cause epidemics in humans and equines. LDLRAD3 has been foun…
— A number of bacterial and mammalian expression vectors for production of SARS-CoV proteins that can be used for immunization, B-cell sorting, and human serum evaluation are available. Expression constructs produce: spike, ACE2, CD147, Surface display, SARS-1 and SARS-2 ORF7a, ORF8, and nucleocapsid…
— Technology Description Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed an improved method to differentiate stem-cells into functionally mature, insulin-secreting beta cells (SC-beta cells). Pancreatic beta cells play an important role in controlling blood glucose levels as they se…
— Technology Description A team of researchers has developed a high throughput, FDA-compliant assay to predict coronary heart disease and mortality in the general population 6-10 years before the onset of disease. This fully validated two-dimensional liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (L…
