Overview of Services

NYU Grossman School of Medicine’s Rodent Genetic Engineering Laboratory (RGEL) is a resource for researchers who want to apply advanced molecular genetic techniques in rodent models of physiology and disease. Our lab is experienced at generating novel mutant mouse strains by using gene targeting in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and by developing novel methods of modifying rodent genomes and assaying genetically modified cells in vivo. Our lab scientists customize technologies to meet individual project needs, including specialized expertise in the use the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) systems and other approaches for direct genome editing in vivo. Available advanced technologies include CRISPR/Cas9, a proprietary rapid strain-creation method known as the EZ-Mouse Model (tetraploid complementation systems), GEMMs-ESC Speedy cancer animal models, regulated gene expression by high-throughput RNA interference assay in mice (RNAi mice), safe-harbor knock-in gene editing using the Rosa26 and other loci, recombinase-mediated cassette exchange, Inducible Tet-On® and Tet-Off® Gene Expression Systems, homologous recombination, induced pluripotent stem cells, assisted reproductive technologies, and vitrification systems.
