Today, on the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we're celebrating the women at Applied StemCell who dedicate their talent, curiosity, and expertise to advancing life-saving biology every day.

From research and development to operations and beyond, women across our company play a vital role in driving innovation and delivering high-quality iPSC and genome engineering solutions that support the development of next-generation cell therapies.

At Applied StemCell, we’re committed to fostering a workplace where women are supported, valued, and empowered to grow at every stage of their careers—whether they’re at the bench, in the boardroom, or working across disciplines to move cell line engineering forward.

As Eimi Oda, a Research Associate on our Cell Engineering team, puts it:

“Confidence comes from learning, asking questions, and allowing yourself to grow.”

We encourage our peers to join us in inspiring the next generation of women and girls in science. Let’s build a future where innovation reflects the diversity of the world it serves.

Science is for everyone.

World Cancer Day is a moment to recognize the profound impact of cancer and the global efforts underway to better understand it, prevent it, and improve outcomes for patients worldwide.

One study we’re especially excited about demonstrates how genome engineering can uncover the mechanisms that drive cancer progression. In their work, Ranade et al. (https://go.nature.com/46uW02t) used CRISPR-based genome engineering to study metastatic behavior in colorectal cancer (CRC).

By knocking out the MIEN1 promoter region in an HT29 CRC cell line, the researchers observed significant changes to the cells’ actin cytoskeleton—a structure that plays a critical role in how cancer cells move and spread. These findings point to MIEN1 as a promising therapeutic target for limiting metastasis.

We’re proud to have supported this work as the genome engineering partner behind the MIEN1 knock-out, helping enable research that brings us closer to more effective cancer treatments. It’s research like this that motivates us to invest in advanced genome engineering solutions that help answer complex biological questions.

At Applied StemCell, we excel at complex genome engineering services, ranging from multiple knock-outs and point mutations to large cargo insertions enabled by our TARGATT™ technology.

What would you cure with a 50 kb knock-in?

With the demonstrated ability to knock in at least 50 kb of DNA into a safe harbor site in the human genome and achieve robust, consistent expression, TARGATT™ technology opens the door to new cell therapy approaches:

• Integrate large genes
• Express multi-gene constructs
• Engineer sophisticated structures such as logic-gated CARs
• Insert multiple expression cassettes

See the data showing how TARGATT™ technology inserted a 50 kb donor plasmid—synthesized in under one month by Ansa Biotechnologies, Inc.—into human iPSCs, leading to robust constitutive and induced protein expression.

Need precise, single-copy DNA integration in mammalian cells? TARGATT™ large knock-in technology makes it possible.

Unlike lentivirus or transposons, which integrate randomly and in multiple copies, the TARGATT™ platform inserts site-specifically and in single copy at its designated landing pad.

This precision enables applications in mammalian cells that were previously challenging, including library creation, pool-based screening, and more.

And because the TARGATT™ integrase destroys att sites during recombination, the reaction is unidirectional, preventing excision and maximizing efficiency.

TARGATT™ technology: predictable integration, confident outcomes.

Contact us to carry out single copy insertions in your own lab: https://bit.ly/3Novtxo

See the single-copy insertion data in the image below:

FIGURE CAPTION: We co-transfected GFP and mCherry TARGATT™ donor plasmids into CHO cells (A) and imaged the resulting cells using the green channel (B), the red channel (C), and as an overlay (D). In the overlay, the lack of yellow cells—cells that express both GFP and mCherry—demonstrate that genomic insertion using TARGATT™ technology only occurs in single copy.

Meet with James at Poster 48 at Antibody Engineering and Therapeutics US and learn about different approaches for engineering mammalian cells to express difficult proteins with TARGATT™ technology.

Engineering transgenic mammalian cell lines for protein production can be time-consuming and labor-intensive—especially when trying to achieve inducible expression—which is why we used TARGATT™ technology.

Find out more about our three different strategies at Poster 48, viewable any time after 12:00pm on Monday, December 15. We encourage you to join us during the designated poster viewing session beginning at 6:15pm that same day.

If you aren’t able to make it to our poster session, we’ll be at Booth 608. We look forward to speaking with you in San Diego!
