TACONIC BIOSCIENCES ANNOUNCES PARTNERSHIP WITH CERGENTIS B.V. TO PROVIDE TRANSGENE MAPPING SERVICES

HUDSON, N.Y., Aug 15 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Taconic Biosciences, a global leader in genetically engineered mouse models and associated services, announced it has signed a collaborative agreement with Cergentis B.V. ("Cergentis") to leverage the company's Targeted Locus Amplification (TLA) technology to provide transgene mapping services to its customers.

While transgenic mice generated via random pro-nuclear injection (PNI) continue to be a critical tool in biomedical research, a distinct disadvantage of these models is the inability to direct the transgene to a specific integration site within the genome. Cergentis has developed a next generation sequencing method based on their patented TLA technology. Taconic's Transgene Mapping Analysis (TgMA) service leverages this platform, making the task of determining the precise location of a randomly inserted transgene much easier. In addition to the sequencing data from Cergentis, Taconic provides expert interpretation specific to the transgenic line, leading to an optimized breeding strategy.
