Plasmids for calling cards and single cell calling cardsChen, Xuhua ; Lalli, Matthew ; Mitra, Robi ; Moudgil, Arnav ; Wilkinson, Michael Nathaniel
T-019487
— These plasmids can be used for single cell calling cards (“scCCs”), a robust and versatile self-reporting transposon system for high throughput analysis of protein-DNA binding with single cell resolution (WUSTL Technology T-018069). scCC simultaneously maps the precise location of tran…
Inducible PiggyBac transposase constructsMitra, Robi ; Qi, Zongtai
T-019209
— Chemically inducible PiggyBac transposase constructs. The plasmids that contain mutated destabilized domains, FKBP and DHFR, were purchased from Addgene with ID 31763 and 29326, respectively. The PBase-ERT2 plasmid (mPBase-L3-ERT2) was a kind gift from Dr. Allen Bradley . The coding sequence of mPBa…

T-018609
— Technology Description Researchers in Prof. Rob Mitra’s laboratory have developed single cell calling cards (“scCCs”), a robust and versatile self-reporting transposon system for high throughput analysis of protein-DNA binding with single cell resolution. This technology simulta…
Obligate Heterotetrameric Pairs of Cre Recombinase Mutants for Efficient Recombination at Asymmetric SitesCorbo, Joseph ; Havranek, James ; Mitra, Robi ; Myers, Connie ; Qi, Zongtai ; Zhang, Chi
T-015523
— Background: The function of enzymes involved in homologous recombination can be exploited in the field of genetic engineering in order to generate mutations of interest. However, this machinery is not functionally efficient in post mitotic or terminally differentiated cells. Viral gene therapy techn…
Fast, simple, low-cost point-of-care diagnostics for COVID-19 and other infectious diseasesBuchser, William ; Lalli, Matthew ; Milbrandt, Jeffrey ; Mitra, Robi
T-019442
— Technology Description A team of Washington University researchers has developed a low-cost molecular diagnostics kit and reader that could provide rapid, widespread screening and surveillance for SARS-CoV-2 and other infections. This technology utilizes a reverse-transcription loop-mediated isot…
