  • Methods for Transfecting Nucleic Acid Into Live Cells
    Publication number: 20200206364
    Abstract: The present invention includes methods for transferring a multigenic phenotype to a cell by transfecting, preferably by phototransfection, and locally transfecting a cell or a cellular process with a laser while the cell is bathed in a fluid medium comprising two or more nucleic acids, thereby introducing the nucleic acid into the interior of the cell. Expression of the nucleic acids results in a multigenic phenotype in the transfected cell.
    Type: Application
    Filed: March 10, 2020
    Publication date: July 2, 2020
    Inventors: James Eberwine, Philip G. Haydon, Jai-Yoon Sul, Hajime Takano, Chia-Wen Kitty Wu, Fanyi Zeng
