Zebrafish Tol2 Transgenesis Services

Insert large content in the zebrafish genome using the Tol2 transposon-based system.

Using Tol2 transgenesis you can generate:

  • Cre Recombinase-Driver lines
  • Transcriptional reporters
  • Models to analyze tissue-specific gene expression
  • Models to control the timing of gene expression
  • Humanized zebrafish

Comparison of Tol2 vs. CRISPR

Nature of Edit
Number of Insertions
Germline Edits
Germline Efficiency
Common Terminology
Phenotype in F0 (injected embryos)
Max. Size of Insert

Tol2 Transposase

Random insertion

Multiple

Yes

10% to 40%

Transgenesis

Mosaic

Usually 13-15kb - depends on cargo

CRISPR/ Cas9

Site specific

Single

Yes

~2% to 5%

Knock-in Edit

Mosaic

Unknown but appears that the larger the insert the lower the efficiency.
