ioGlutamatergic Neurons PRKN R275W/R275W are opti‑ox™ precision reprogrammed glutamatergic neurons carrying a genetically engineered homozygous mutation in the PRKN gene encoding the Parkin protein. These cells offer a rapidly maturing, disease relevant and isogenic system for investigating the molecular and cellular significance of a homozygous R275W mutation in Parkinson’s disease.
Related disease model cells are coming soon with a heterozygous PRKN R275W mutation, and both can be used alongside their genetically matched control, ioGlutamatergic Neurons™.
Coming Soon
Register your interest, and we will notify you as soon as the product is available.
Make True Comparisons
Pair the ioDisease Model Cells with the genetically matched wild-type ioGlutamatergic Neurons to directly investigate the effect of homozygous expression of mutant Parkin protein on disease
Scalable
With opti-ox technology, we can make billions of consistently reprogrammed cells, surpassing the demands of industrial workflows.
Quick
The disease model cells and isogenic control are experiment ready as early as 2 days post revival, and form structural neuronal networks at 11 days.
