 :: RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT ::





BioProtein Transgenics is intensively working in R&D to develop, improve and implement genetic engineering tools in the rabbit species.

The company develops partnerships with both academic laboratories and biotech companies and is committed to joint research in order to innovate and propose first class servicing for transgenic rabbit generation as animal models.
 :: GENE KNOCK-OUT ::

Gene knock out is currently being developed by BioProtein Transgenics, through different methods:
- interference RNA
- gene disruption by homologous recombination

BioProtein Transgenics, already obtained 98% extinction of milk protein genes with interference RNA method while milk proteins are commonly expressed at relatively high levels (15 to 40 g/L). This result allows us to reasonably consider as possible functional knock-out
through interference RNA methods.

 :: GENE KNOCK-IN & GENE REPLACEMENT ::

 


Gene knock in as well as gene replacement are currently being developed by the company, using homologous recombination.
