It is a well known fact if a multicopy variant of a gene exists, there must be assays that researchers can use to quantify said copies. They do so using copy number variation (CNV) assays. There are several varieties of these, but in this blog post, we're going to focus on ...
I love Addgene's new Antibody Guide and not just because I helped create it. But while antibodies, as the OG (as the kids say) affinity reagents deserved to be celebrated, there are many other amazing affinity reagents we just didn't have the space to give proper credit to. ...
This post was originally written by Tyler Ford in 2018. It was updated by guest blogger Abhi Aggarwal in 2022. Recent updates to iGluSnFR and SF-iGluSnFR have made it clear that it’s time to update our iGluSnFR post! Here, we look at the origins of the system and explore ...
Addgene has recently announced the launch of an open-access recombinant antibody resource called NABOR (Neuroscience AntiBody Open Resource). The antibodies distributed through NABOR are recombinant antibodies expressed from plasmids that have been deposited with Addgene. Here, ...
FLIS and Flies Drosophila, more commonly known as fruit flies, have been an important animal model for research, particularly genetics research, for decades. Its short life cycle, reasonably close genetic homology to humans, and small size have allowed scientists to use it as a ...
Addgene is thrilled to announce the launch of our latest community resource: Recombinant Antibodies! In addition to plasmids and viral vectors, you’ll now be able to order ready-to-use antibodies for your experiments directly from Addgene.
Your new antibody has arrived, hooray! Before you jump straight into the exciting new experiments that you’ve been planning, it is a good idea to pause and make sure that your antibody has been appropriately validated so that you can have confidence in your results. But what is ...
