Customized Microbial Models

Microbes are powerful tools that have a wide range of applications in biological research. The site-specific recombinase allows researchers insert, delete, or modify specific DNA sequences within the genome of a microbe, as well as the precise control of gene expression and the creation of new genetic constructs. Creative Biogene offers customized microbial model development service for assisting out global customers making better breakthrough in biology research.

Introduction into Microbial Models Generated by SSR

Site-specific recombinases are widely used in microbes for genome engineering and manipulation. Microbes are ideal candidates for this technology due to their small and relatively simple genomes, ease of genetic manipulation, and the ability to grow and manipulate them in large quantities.

One of the most commonly used site-specific recombinases in microbes is Cre recombinase, which can be used to catalyze the site-specific recombination of loxP sites in bacterial and yeast genomes. This technology allows for the precise manipulation of bacterial and yeast genomes, enabling the creation of strains with specific genetic modifications or characteristics.

Advantages of SSR in Microbes

  • Site-specificity: Site-specific recombinases can target specific DNA sequences, such as loxP sites, ensuring that genetic modifications are made only at the desired location in the genome. This enables precise and controlled genetic engineering, minimizing the risk of unintended effects on the host cell.
  • Reversibility: Site-specific recombinases are reversible, meaning that genetic modifications can be undone by simply expressing the recombinase again. This allows for the creation of conditional genetic modifications, where genes can be turned on or off depending on the expression of the recombinase.
  • Efficiency: Site-specific recombinases are highly efficient, enabling rapid and reliable genetic modifications with minimal off-target effects. This allows for the rapid generation of large numbers of genetically modified microbial strains for use in research or industrial applications.
  • Scalability: Site-specific recombinase technology is scalable, allowing for the generation of large numbers of genetically modified microbial strains for use in high-throughput screening or industrial production. This enables the rapid development of new biotechnological applications and the efficient optimization of existing processes.
  • Compatibility: Site-specific recombinase technology is compatible with a wide range of microbial species, enabling the generation of genetically modified strains across a broad range of applications. This makes it a versatile tool for microbial biotechnology.
