Cell Line Authentication As recommended by NIH prior to publication , we offer short tandem repeat (STR) profiling service to to confirm the identity of a human cell line. Mycoplasma Testing Testing service is recommended prior to cryopreservation and at regular intervals in culture, using PCR based MycoDtect kit from Greiner Bio-One . Single Cell Genomics We offer a growing range of genomics applications for single cells, including RNA-seq, gene expression profiling by qPCR and DNA amplification by way of the 10x Genomics Chromium platform . Lab Service Offerings The GRCF is a JHU service center producing a number of products and services to aid researchers performing studies in cell biology, molecular biology and genetics. Request Services Genotyping We offer high throughput options on the llumina platform, medium throughput with the Life Technologies Open Array, and lower throughput options via individual TaqMan® , Qiagen Pyrosequencing assays or STR/VNTR analysis. Digital PCR Digital PCR is a new service offering to address nucleic acid detection and quantification, by measuring the fraction of negative replicates to determine absolute copies. Methylation DNA methylation service is offered for large numbers of samples via genotyping using the Illumina 850K Methylation BeadChip or via custom Illumina products. Smaller scale projects and quantitative analysis can be carried out via Pyrosequencing. Ordering From the GRCF is Easy!

We have a broad range of expertise and in many instances, can propose an array of possible approaches to your research question. We are also happy to write letters of support for grant applications, demonstrating to reviewers that the resources for your study are available at the university. Research & Environment Document Leading Edge Technologies The GRCF works to stay at the leading edge of technology, by providing sophisticated tools and equipment oftentimes not available in the individual research lab. We encourage faculty to reach out and discuss their evolving research needs. Service Overview Educational Opportunities The GRCF offers regular webinars and seminars to the Johns Hopkins Community. Annually, the GRCF Symposium combines guest research speakers and vendors offering the latest technology, for a unique progressive research experience. Events Testimonials For the past two decades, the GRCF has provided state-of-the-art technical expertise and cost-efficient support for our laboratory’s collaborations with scientists working at Johns Hopkins and throughout the world.” Bert Vogelstein, M.D. Director, Ludwig Center at Johns Hopkins Howard Hughes Medical Institute We have been very pleased with the affordable, high-quality deep RNA sequencing data we have received from the GRCF for multiple research projects over the last year. I now consider it an essential feature of our projects.” Gregg Semenza, M.D., Ph.D. C. Michael Armstrong Professor of Genetic Medicine Johns Hopkins University...
