Custom TurboMice™
TurboMice™ is next-generation mouse model generation technology, which harnesses optimized tetraploid complementation to deliver fully homozygous mouse models in just 2–4 months—60% faster than traditional breeding methods. Unlike conventional approaches that require 6–12 months of tedious breeding cycles, our process starts with precision editing of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) for targeted gene knockouts, floxing, or multi-locus modifications. We then use tetraploid complementation to develop these ESCs directly into experiment-ready mice, skipping the need for chimeric F1 and F2 generations. This method ensures 100% genotype certainty from the F0 generation, eliminating the guesswork of heterozygous screening and saving researchers thousands of hours spent on colony management.
Key Features
• The world's first platform to industrialize Tetraploid Complementation Technology, enabling one-step generation of homozygous models (directly addresses the chimerism pain point associated with traditional methods).
• Outstanding performance in complex models, enable one-step acquisition of CKO/CKI Homozygotes (e.g., mutti-gene editing, humanzied genomic replacement).
• Customized Genetic Models with Guaranteed Homozygosity—No Breeding Required.
• Delivery cycle: only 2-4 months (over 60% faster than traditional methods).

Case Study
Traditional transgenic K18-ACE2 mice are generated through random exogenous insertion, which precludes precise editing and results in a model lacking tissue specificity. In contrast, TurboMice™ humanized ACE2 models allow for organ-specific expression (Figures C and D), more accurately mimicking clinical disease manifestations.
By optimizing enhancers, we successfully upgraded our humanized ACE2 mouse model four times in just one year. Humanized ACE2 expression has increased steadily with each iteration and now nears endogenous levels—a feat that would take traditional methods significantly longer and cost much more to achieve.
