Few lab routines are as commonplace — or as patience-testing — as DNA preps. For most labs, getting plasmid DNA still means streaking plates, growing an overnight culture, performing a miniprep, and checking concentration and quality. Researchers can spend a few days (or ...
If you came to Addgene looking for a plasmid sequence and ran into a login request instead, we understand why that’s frustrating. You knew exactly what you needed, and now there’s one more step between you and the information you’re looking for. We didn’t add this step to slow ...

We all know the timeline for publishing research papers can be long and unpredictable. Fortunately, you can submit plasmids at any point in that process and we provide an option to keep your deposit on hold from public access until the article is published. This policy gives us ...
The recent sweeping cuts to science funding, limitations to facilities and indirect costs, and increased tariffs present an unprecedented challenge to the scientific research ecosystem, not just in the United States but around the world. As an organization that directly ...
Twenty years of accelerating scientific discovery. Over 150,000 plasmids empowering researchers worldwide. Countless breakthroughs enabled by shared resources. As we step into 2025, these milestones remind us of the extraordinary impact that happens when scientists come together ...
