Originally published Aug 3, 2017 and last updated Apr 6, 2021 by Will Arnold. Introducing NGS in 2017 for all incoming plasmids was a big change for Addgene - we had used Sanger sequencing for quality control for over ten years. Now, thanks to a generous donation by the Hirsh ...
Every few months we highlight a subset of the new plasmids and viral preps in the repository through our hot plasmids articles. These articles provide brief summaries of recent plasmid deposits and we hope they'll make it easier for you to find and use the plasmids you need. ...

There are 64 different codons that encode 20 amino acids and three stop codons, meaning that the same amino acid can be encoded by more than one codon. Although the genetic code is universal, many different organisms actually prefer certain codons over others for certain amino ...
Originally published Feb 6, 2014 and last updated Nov 10, 2020. Now that we know all about antibiotic resistance genes, let’s consider another basic element of any plasmid: the origin of replication/replicon. The replicon is comprised of the origin of replication (ori) and all ...
This post was contributed by guest blogger, Robert Orr, who recently received a Ph.D. in Biology and Biotechnology from Worcester Polytechnic Institute. What is RNAi? The loss-of-function (LOF) experiment functions as the building block of our understanding of complex biological ...
