There are several facilities nationwide where you can obtain excellent quality, high titer rAAV (including Addgene!), but you can also generate rAAVs in your own lab with standard molecular biology tools and tissue culture experience. Here, we’ll go over the basics of rAAV ...
What's new in Addgene's ready-to-use viral vectors repository? Quite a bit! In this post, we'll share the 20 additions we've made to our viral vectors repository since March.
What's new in Addgene's ready-to-use viral vectors repository? Quite a bit! In this post, we'll share the 21 additions we've made to our viral vectors repository this year (and it's only March!)
Addgene has a growing catalogue of viral preps available to request. In this post, we’ll walk you through how we produce both our AAV preps and our lentiviral preps.
The blood-brain-barrier (BBB) exists to prevent substances in the blood, like proteins and viruses, from crossing into the brain. While helpful from a biological standpoint, it makes delivering AAVs to the brain difficult. Traditionally, delivery is achieved through the use of ...
Viruses are simple: a genome packaged in a protein shell (Taylor, 2014). They’re so simple that we can’t even decide if they’re alive or not. Yet these simple, small particles have quite the outsized impact — and not just on the disease front.
Calcium is arguably one of the most important metal ions in biology (sodium and potassium are up there too!). Calcium is fundamental to muscle and nerve function, hormone secretion, blood clotting, and as we all know, a structural component of bones and teeth. It is an enzyme ...
