Amphoteric Protein Transfection Reagent
Introducing Foreign Genes into Cells


Introduction

In genetic engineering, scientists need to study and understand the genetic changes that take place in cells. They have established many ways to introduce foreign genes into cellular tissue culture.

One method is to use a lipid transfection reagent. It can bind with the foreign gene which is to be introduced into the cell. The new material formed can easily cross into the cell membrane resulting in the completion of the transfection process.

Our Technology

Our scientists have discovered a totally new transfection reagent. It is not only easier to manufacture than the lipid reagent, but also has target guiding capabilities. Because it is made of amphoteric protein, it binds with the first anti-body, becoming a transfection tool with direct targeting characteristics.

At the same time it easily binds with the second anti-body, so that it becomes a broad-ranged targeting tool.

Applications

Transfection Reagent in Action

The Amphoteric Protein Transfection Reagent (APTR) can be used for introducing foreign genes into many different cells, such as myeloma and lymphocyte cells from mice, insect cells, and germinated plant pollen cells. It has a wide drug carrier range and is not limited by the drug's pH, pharmaceutical character, molecular weight, etc. Large molecules, like fluorescent DNA antibodies, and small molecules, like dyes, both can be used in the transfection reagent.
