Gene Synthesis Service
IDT's confidential and custom gene synthesis service saves researchers time and money by constructing, cloning and sequencing genes. All genes are constructed using Ultramers™, the highest fidelity next generation synthesis technology available. Genes arrive in a plasmid cloning vector and are ready for use in a variety of applications. Up to 400 bp at one flat rate, shipped in 4-8 days. Genes up to 1500 bp shipped in 8-12 days. Each gene is 100% sequence-verified, QC data available online.
