GEN-H – Genetic Engineering Heidelberg GmbH

After 17 years and more than 800 successful DNA engineering projects, the Service Unit of Gene Bridges GmbH was transformed into an independent company by a management buy-out with the effective date January 1^st 2020.

The company continues to operate from the Technology Park in Heidelberg, Germany, which provides an excellent network for innovation and high-tech in the area of the well-known wine area “Bergstrasse, Odenwald”.

Gen-H’s team of scientists has a vast experience in Genetic Engineering due to its daily application of Red/ET recombination (“Recombineering”). This technology originally developed at the EMBL in Heidelberg allows well-defined and precise modification of DNA to create tailor-made constructs for the generation of animal models, as well as for the modification of the E. coli chromosome, e.g. for pathway engineering.
