Non-Viral Gene Engineering with the TcBuster™ Transposon System.
TcBuster is a next-generation non-viral genetic modification system with the potential to deliver therapeutic payloads to various cell types to address a broad range of therapeutic applications.
The TcBuster system includes a transposon plasmid containing the gene of interest (GOI) to be inserted in the target cell’s genome. TcBuster supports the rapid generation of transgenic mammalian cells by allowing for multigene transfer and CRISPR-mediated knockouts in one operation. TcBuster is a valuable tool for both proof-of-concept studies and manufacturing scale process development.
TcBuster addresses your challenges with:
- the high cost of virus-based genetic modification
- the inconsistent availability of virus-based modification reagents
- the cargo size constraints of virus-based systems
Enhance Your Gene Transfer with TcBuster
TcBuster is a transposon-based technology used to deliver your gene-of-interest safely and randomly into a host’s genome. Watch how TcBuster can help you achieve your genome engineering goals.
This new article in Cell & Gene Therapy Insights discusses the transposon-based TcBuster platform and its competitive advantages in cell and gene therapy.

Overcome Limits of Electroporation
Our cutting edge non-viral vector transgene insertion platform harnesses DNA transposons for stable gene transfer into any cell type. TcBuster overcomes the three major technical challenges of other transposon systems.
- Insertion efficiency – Greater than 40% insertion efficiency for stable integration in T-cells.
- DNA toxicity – Proprietary techniques reduce effects of DNA toxicity.
- Random integration of enzyme DNA into host genome – Random delivery of transposase as mRNA or protein.
Transposons have demonstrated a safe gene delivery system insertion profile while maintaining high-efficiency gene transfer. DNA transposons enable rapid generation of transgenic mammalian cells with limited off-target effects and stable, reliable gene expression.
