Gene modification: TALEN™ Basic
Your Custom TALEN™ of choice for any gene modification project
TALEN™ Basic is your Custom TALEN™ of choice for any gene modification projects. You can tag genes, swap promoters or substitute nucleotides.

Validation of your choice
TALEN™ Basic’s activity can be validated at the level of your choice (no validation, on episomal or chromosomal target sequence). We offer standard validation levels for human, mouse & rat cell lines, as well upon request validate the TALEN™ activity on your cell line. Talk to us about your TALEN™ project and let us define the best TALEN™ for your project.
See below the different validation levels:
