Expanded gene offerings include new vector options, transparent pricing and expedited turnaround times
CORALVILLE, Iowa--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#AdvancesinSyntheticBiology--To enable pharmaceutical researchers to move quickly into their high‐throughput screening experiments, global genomics solutions provider Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT) today released rapid genes, a new offering in its synthetic biology portfolio. Available from 125 base pairs (bp) to 2000 bp, IDT's rapid genes are ready-to-use, next generation sequencing (NGS)-verified clonal genes shipped in as little as five business days. Rapid genes are priced at $0.15 USD per bp and delivered in a plate format for automated workflows.
"Fast genes are in IDT's DNA. With rapid genes, customers can expect faster turnaround times, consistent pricing and a trusted partner that can deliver a complete solution to advance their drug discovery work sooner," said Sandy Ottensmann, VP/General Manager, Gene Writing & Editing Business Unit at IDT. "This is all enabled by the recent investment IDT has made with its synthetic biology manufacturing operations and expanded footprint, in support of the important work the pharmaceutical research community is making to drive significant innovation in the bioeconomy and accelerate the pace of genomics."
Rapid genes are circular double-stranded DNA in a plasmid and are available to ship dry or in a resuspension buffer in 96-well or 384-well plates. In addition to rapid genes, IDT is also rolling out enhancements to its existing gene synthesis offerings, including additional standard bacterial and mammalian expression vectors, expanded yield up to 100 μg with endotoxin free option, and 100% sequence verified, error-free clones. IDT's rapid genes and recent custom vector onboarding tool launches are the latest addition to IDT's broad synthetic biology portfolio comprised of genes and gene fragments.
As a large-scale provider of synthetic DNA, IDT can make gene fragments between 125 bp to 3 kb, and custom genes between 25 bp to 5 kb. Genes greater than 5 kb are available through custom quoting. To place an order, request a custom quote or for more information, visit .
