Cre-ESCs Gene Editing
Cre-ESCs Gene Editing technology is an advanced genetic engineering platform. Bypass complex breeding, using Cyagen’s proprietary TurboKnockout® technology, our Cre-ESCs platform delivers 99.9% chimerism in Founder (F0) mice and achieves one-step acquisition of cKO/cKI homozygotes.
Dramatically Shorter Cycle
Reduce the delivery cycle to just 4-5 months, saving research time.
One-Step Homozygosity
One-step acquisition of 99.9% chimeric cKI/cKO homozygotes.
TurboKnockout® Reliability
TurboKnockout®-based, off-target-free, IP-safe, and large-fragment-ready.

How Cre-ESCs Works
Cre-ESCs technology is an advanced genetic engineering platform that enables the rapid and reliable generation of tissue-specific conditional knockout (cKO) or knock-in (cKI) mouse models. By introducing loxP-flanked alleles directly into pre-validated Cre-expressing embryonic stem cells, homozygous Cre/loxP models can be obtained in a single step, eliminating time-consuming breeding processes.

Rigorous QC Standards
We insure the reliability of every model through a comprehensive QC process established for our Cre-ES cell lines:
Karyotype Analysis
To ensure chromosomal stability.
Sterility & Mycoplasma Detection
To guarantee clean cell lines.
Sex Identification & Cre PCR
To verify genotype accuracy.
Validation
Example:CD8 T Cell-Specific LSL-tdTomato Homozygous Mouse
Combined with the PCR results of ES cells and the flow cytometry results of founder mice,Cre-ESCs enable rapid and efficient tissue-specific gene expression in F0 generation, with performance comparable to naturally bred models — but achieved significantly faster.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What types of genetic modifications are supported?
Our platform supports knockout, point mutation, conditional knockout, and large-fragment knockin (up to 15 kb). We also offer humanization and reporter knockin designs upon request.
How does Cyagen ensure specificity and minimize off-target effects?
We utilize our proprietary AI-powered sequence design engine, AlphaKnockout™, to identify the optimal genomic targeting guides (Guide Molecules) with minimal off-target potential. Each design undergoes rigorous in silico validation prior to embryo injection.
Can I use a specific mouse or rat strain for my model?
Yes. We routinely generate models on C57BL/6, FVB, SD, Wistar, and other commonly used strains. Additional strains can be accommodated upon request.
Is there a guarantee for model delivery?
Yes. Our Targeted Gene Editing services are backed by a 100% money-back guarantee if the promised genotype is not achieved.
