CRISPR/Cas9 editing:
- Transfection of CHO cells with plasmids coding for CRISPR/Cas9
- Analysis of transfection efficiency with flow cytometry
- Genotyping of DNA edits
- Staining and flow cytometry analysis of phenotypic effect
- Discussion and interpretation of results
- Inhaltliche Voraussetzungen (erwartete Kenntnisse)
-
Applicable for MSc Biotechnologie or PhD students. BSc students can not be accepted. Prerequisite: either one of the following courses must be successfully completed:
Cell Factories (790351) or Zellkultur (790318) orStem cells and tissue engineering (790367)
- Lehrziel
-
Students shall gain a basic understanding of cell culture technology and the handling and operation of a bioreactor for recombinant protein production. They are able to carry out work with established cell lines and recognize critical work steps, such as sterile handling. Students shall get familiar with planning and dividing the workload among themselves. Further acquirable skills include, data documentation, evaluation and presentation in front of an audience.
