— STING N153S knock-in mice These mice carry a N153S (asparagine to serine) substitution in the Tmem173 (transmembrane protein 173 or STING) gene. The mice were created using CRISPR/Cas9 with a single guide RNA designed based on specificity and proximity to the targeted STING mutation site. Two indep…
— This technology contains a panel of human or mouse specific monomers for staining T cells to enumerate antigen specific cells. The proteins have been produced in E coli after the generation of plasmids encoding each monomer. The proteins are folded in association with unique peptides and purified by…
— Antibodies against Western Equine Encephalitis Virus (WEEV) Inventors demonstrated the antibodies reactivity with WEEV-infected cells or with WEEV proteins. These antibodies can be used for diagnostic and potentially therapeutic purposes.
— The Bhlhe40 flox/flox mice on the C57BL/6 background originated as a KO-first promoter-driven mouse line from the Knockout Mouse Project and were purchased from the Jackson Laboratory. These initial mice contained a Bhlhe40 allele with a splice acceptor-LacZ reporter and a Neo cassette flanked by tw…
— CHO Gadd7 knockdown cell lines Inventors generated two stable Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell lines with knockdown of gadd7 by transfecting cells with a custom siRNA plasmid targeting hamster gadd7 (KD1 and KD2) and a control CHO cell line by transfecting cells with a custom scrambled siRNA plasmi…
— Plasmids for luciferase expression in Cryptosporidium The plasmids listed below are for targeting insertion into the TK and UPRT loci in Cryptosporidium parvum. To generate the plasmids, the inventors modified a previously described nanoluciferase (Nluc) reporter fused to neomycin resistance (NeoR)…
— This mouse strain has a genetic alteration in STAT3 and can be used to understand the role of STAT3 in human disease. Publication: Early-onset lymphoproliferation and autoimmunity caused by germline STAT3 gain-of-function mutations
— This capsid expresses a dmoninant negative non-functional form of the SK2 channel present in neurons. This allows us to directly measure the effects of SK2 in hippocampal neurons.
— Murine tumor cell lines Murine syngeneic MCA induced tumor lines have been developed and characterized by the Schreiber Lab and provide critical models to study drugs or pathways that impact tumor growth or rejection. In particular they are used to study mechanism of action of immune checkpoint blo…
— This expression plasmid can be used to identify inhibitors for Keap1 – a pathway that is invoIved in oxidative stress response and implicated in Marburg virus infection. Publication: Dimerization controls Marburg virus VP24-dependent modulation of host antioxidative stress responses
— Gadd7 haploinsufficient mutant CHO cell line Inventors generated a mutant Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell line with disruption of one allele encoding Gadd7, a non-coding RNA. CHO cells were transduced with retrovirus at a low multiplicity of infection and mutants were isolated. Number of retrovira…
— Target: CD155 is a adhesion receptor, orginally known as the cellular receptor for Polio Virus. Notes: Clone name is SK II 4.3Information on antibody against poliovirus receptor (CD155) Herein, we describe the generation of a murine antibody that recognizes poliovirus receptor (CD155). We made this antibody by immunizing mice with SK-N-S1 human neuroblastoma cells. We then validated this antibody using flow cytometry. …
— Valosin Containing Protein (VCP) patient derived fibroblasts, reprogrammed into iPSC cells and corresponding gene corrected line. These cells can be used to model VCP associated muscle disease, ALS, and dementia.
— Target: Mouse/rat interleukin-1 beta and mouse interleukin-1 alpha. Located on macrophages, dendritic cells, T and B cells. Notes: Clone name is B-122 and Alf-161Information on antibodies against IL-1 beta: The role of murine IL-1 beta in vitro and in vivo has not been defined. We describe here the production of neutralizing and immunoprecipitating mAb and polyclonal antibodies specific for murine IL-1 beta and their application to a characterization of the…
— Target: Full length mouse Vb 8.3 TCR but not 8.1 or 8.2. Vb 8.3. Application: Flow cytometryThis antibody was made by immunizing Armenian hamsters. It was used to study the mechanisms that act to keep only one functional TCR beta-chain per cell and the effect of selecting ligand density on positive selection and endogenous receptor usage in mice. Publication: TCR transgenic mice in which …
— Target: CD96 is a T cell-specific receptor indicative of T cell activation. Notes: Clone name NK92.39.1. For use in flow cytometry.Researchers generated the antibodies by immunizing mice with NK92 cells and selected hybridomas that plocked binding of PVR to NK92. These antibodies have been used to study natural killer cell target cell adhesion. Publication: Cutting Edge: CD96 (Tactile) Promotes NK Cell-Target Cell Adhesion by …
— Crry-knockout mouse strain (Crry -/-)Researchers generated mice deficient in Crry by disrupting exon 5 of the mouse Crry gene. The mice are sensitive to complement deposition and activation, especially the C3 component of complement on the surface of the placenta. Publication: A Critical Role for Murine Complement Regulator Crry in Fe…
— Plasmid vectors for shRNA expression, CRISPR reagent delivery, protein expression, reporter (promoter or 3’UTR) assays, and non-coding RNA delivery Efficient gene delivery is problematic, especially in hard to transfect primary cells (e.g. organoids). Commercial piggybac vectors are sparse and …
— Ifnl2/Ifnl3 double knock-out mouse strain This mouse strain is in the C57BL/6 background with Ifnl2, Ifnl3 genes disrupted to create a double knock-out.
