— Description: 2ftgh-ISRE-CBG99 cell line- a report line for interferon stimulation. To create these cells the inventors generated a report plasmid of interferon-stimulated response element (5xISRE)-driven luciferase, and co-transfected this vector together with pPUR plasmid into the human 2ftgh fibr…
— Description: Dnmt3b transgenic mouse contains a full-length Flag-tagged murine Dnmt3b cDNA which is under the control of a rtTA promoter. The Dnmt3b transgenic mouse will provide both cell specific and temporal regulation for Dnmt3b over-expression upon recombination with addition of doxycycline (D…
— Description: CRISPR-Cas9 gene edited mice with point mutation in Irg1 (ACOD1). Note: Please contact for additional information.

— Device used to maintain a constant volume within an isolated treatment zone while exchanging its internal volume. Current aspiration and lytic delivery thrombectomy devices do not have isolated treatment zone. Suction could result in collapse or the lysis could result in the distension of the vein wall. Device allows for tandem infusion and suction of fluids from this treatment zone while ensuring that the volume within this treatment zone remains constant.
— Description: Monoclonal antibodies against Dengue virus E proteins. These mAbs are generated in mouse against different Dengue viruses and have been shown, by functional assays, to neutralize infection of the individual Dengue serotypes. Target: Dengue Virus Notes: Contact for more info. Publicat…
— Background: Abnormal phosphorylation of proteins is associated with a number of human diseases including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and diabetes. Due to their role as phosphorlyators, kinases are popular drug targets. However, the difficulty of selectively phosphorylating a desired substra…
— A team of researchers at Washington University in St. Louis has identified an epigenetic pathway and two therapeutic targets that could be used to prevent cartilage loss and counteract the mechanism underlying osteoarthritis. The inventors have seen promising results in a mouse model of arthritis us…
— Mouse fibroblasts are isolated from Irf3-/-xlrf5-/-xlrf7-/-TKO mice. Researchers generated the mouse strains from an inbred C57BL/6 background. Associated Publication: IRF-3, IRF-5, and IRF-7 Coordinately Regulate the Type I IFN Response in Myeloid Dendritic Cells Downstream of MAVS Signaling
— Plasmid comprising the signal peptide and extracellular domain of human glycophorin A fused to antibody Fc domain and a his tag. This plasmid has been used to study malaria treatments. Publications:
— Bacteria modified from the parental strain Lactobacillus reuteri 100-23 that doesn’t express the enzyme aryl aminotransferase. Culture supernatants from this bacterial strain failed to stimulate AhR reporter cells. Publication: Lactobacillus reuteri induces gut intraepithelial CD4+CD8α …
— Technology Description Prof. Barani Raman and colleagues have developed a robust, insect-based, non-invasive sensing system to detect explosives or other chemicals. This “artificial nose” technology includes methods to decode neural signals from the insect’s olfactory system and …
— Technology Description Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1P1)-specific PET tracers. Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors are G-protein coupled receptors, with five subtypes denoted S1P1-5, that have key functions in immune, inflammat…
— Technology Description Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis and colleagues have developed S1PR2-targeted PET tracers. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is an important bioactive lipid that regulates critical biological functions by acting through five specific G protein-coupled S1P recept…
— A plasmid constuct containing the Streptococcus thermophilus dCas9 (dCas9sth 1) gene under the control of the arabinose inducible pBAD promoter and a constitutively expressed single guide RNA (sgRNA) on the pAL5000 vector backbone. Publication: Molecular Toolkit for Gene Expression Control and Geno…
— These materials are an alpha-synuclein binding compound (standard), and the precursor for PET radiolabeling the compound. Precursor’s code name: TZ61-23; chemical name: 2-((6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)amino)quinolin-6-ol. Standard’s code name: TZ61-44; chemical name: 6-(2-fluoroexthoxy)-N-(6-metho…
— Researchers developed these knock-in mice by using homologous recombination to clone the R120G mutation into exon 3 of the αB-crystallin gene (cryab). αB-crystallin (cryAB) helps to maintain protein stability in the eye lens, which is necessary for transparency. The R120G mutation causes…
— These plasmids were developed by Washington University researchers as tools for genetically engineering Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (S6803), a model cyanobacterium used commonly in research and biotechnology applications. Because S6803 is polyploid, genetic modification of this strain typically requi…
