Description: The Transgenic Hydra Facility is a non-profit facility in the laboratory of Thomas Bosch at the University of Kiel that assists scientists to use and to develop transgenic Hydra polyps. Our mission is to provide investigators access to the latest technology for the efficient production of transgenic polyps. We particularly encourage scientists from laboratories lacking the infrastructure for transgenic Hydra technologies to use our services. Abstract: Understanding the evolution of development in large part relies on the study of phylogenetically old organisms. Cnidarians, such as Hydra, have become attractive model organisms for these studies. However, despite long-term efforts, stably transgenic animals could not be generated, severely limiting the functional analysis of genes. Here we report the efficient generation of transgenic Hydra lines by embryo microinjection. One of these transgenic lines expressing EGFP revealed remarkably high motility of individual endodermal epithelial cells during morphogenesis. We expect that transgenic Hydra will become important tools to dissect the molecular mechanisms of development at the base of the Metazoan tree. Sponsors: Financial support for this research was provided by the German Research Foundation [Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft Grants B0848/13 and SFB617.
