CRISPR-Modified Chicken PGCs for High-Yield Recombinant Protein Production
Revolutionizing protein production with avian biotechnology - producing valuable biologics at a fraction of current costs
Explore the OpportunityPrimordial Germ Cells are the foundation of our innovative bioreactor system
Primary undifferentiated stem cells that differentiate towards gametes: spermatozoa or oocytes. PGCs serve as tools for storing high-quality genetic resources, wildlife conservation, and expression of recombinant proteins.
CRISPR technology enables precise genetic modifications in chicken PGCs, allowing targeted insertion of genes for valuable recombinant protein expression directly in egg production.
Each gene-edited chicken becomes a living bioreactor, producing designer eggs containing high-quality recombinant proteins. Simple, efficient, and infinitely scalable.
The global recombinant protein market is experiencing explosive growth
Three integrated approaches deliver reliable, scalable protein production
We identify target DNA sequences and design plasmids carrying Cas9 and guide RNA. Delivery through viral vectors, transfection, or direct microinjection produces gene-edited chicken cell lines with precision.
CRISPR makes precise cuts in the bird's DNA while providing matching donor templates. The cell naturally repairs by copying new genes into its genome, enabling accurate and stable transgene expression.
Edited germ cells are placed into embryos, growing chickens that lay eggs containing desired recombinant proteins. Each egg becomes a simple, scalable production unit for valuable biologics.
