Annogen introduces HEK293-INDX1™
- a clonal HEK293 cell line for inducible expression of toxic proteins such as Rep during AAV production
Annogen is excited to share our latest breakthrough in cellular engineering. We've successfully combined our SuRE™ promoter screening platform and our AIM™ integration site screening platform to establish HEK293 clones with near-zero baseline expression and high inducibility with added stimulus.
EVENTS
Events - Annogen attending BIOEurope in Munich, November 6–8, 2023
Request a partnering meeting with P. Victor Schut, CBO (victor@annogen.bio) and discuss the applications of:
- SuRE™ human promoters for cell and gene therapy
- CHO genome derived promoters for protein manufacturing, cell culture, and
- AIM™ integration site mapping for cell engineering (allogeneic, cell therapy and cell line generation).
EVENTS
Events - Annogen attending the virtual partnering at Alliance for Regenerative Medicine, October 17-18, 2023
Annogen plays a specific role in providing its SuRE™ human promoters (cell specific and/or inducible) and AIM™ integration mapping for cell engineering (e.g. allogeneic platforms).
Looking forward to connecting with senior executives and top stakeholders to tackle the most pressing issues in cell and gene therapies. Please contact (victor@annogen.bio) to learn more about the Annogen qualified promoters and cell engineering capabilities.

NEWS - November 2022 Annogen introduces AIM™ service
Annogen introduces a new service to identify gene insertions and asses their expression levels for >100,000 integrations in parallel. Using an adaptation of its proprietary SuRE™ barcoding strategy and previously established protocols, Annogen has now scaled a gene-insertion and expression mapping strategy to unprecedented numbers.
NEWS
PRESS RELEASE - April 2022 Annogen signs another collaboration agreement with a Tier 1 agricultural firm to research non-coding regulatory DNA using SuRE™ screening technology.
Annogen, the Amsterdam based biotech company behind the SuRE™ technology for the functional annotation of the non-coding part of the genome, started a collaboration with a Tier 1 agri firm to test non-coding DNA fragments that are predicted to influence the expression of important crop traits. The results are expected to provide possibilities to intentionally upregulate or downregulate the expression of important genes in crops.

Novel approach could aid selective breeding in cattle
​
Researchers are developing a method of identifying specific letters in the DNA code that govern the development of key physical traits, such as productivity or disease tolerance, in livestock.
​
The study, involving Roslin researchers and their commercial partner Annogen, will focus on identifying sites in cattle DNA linked to important genes for livestock production and welfare.

NEWS – Annogen Featured in C2W
​
Many diseases are determined by differences in as yet undiscovered gene regulation. Thanks to plasmids and 'barcodes', the SuRE assay can map this relatively easily and extensively for the entire human genome.
