TALEN™ Basic
Cell engineering tools for successful gene modifications
TALEN™ (Transcription Activator-Like Effector Nucleases) are a novel class of sequence-specific nucleases, created by fusing a transcription activator-like effector DNA binding domain to the catalytic head of an endonuclease. These nucleases allow DNA double strands breaks with very high efficiency and precision.
TALEN™ Basic is your Custom TALEN™ of choice for any gene modification projects. Tag genes, substitute nucleotides, swap promoters and more!

Available TALEN™ Basic validation levels
With TALEN™ Basic, choose from our available levels of validation of TALEN™ activity or request a custom validation.
