Gene Synthesis

BioCat’s top-level gene synthesis service provides customized DNA constructs with 100% sequence accuracy. Codon optimization and subcloning into one of our standard vectors is offered for free.

Enjoy our outstanding service with most attractive pricing.

Plasmid Purification

To help you achieve highly efficient cell transfection for DNA vaccine development, antibody production and other preclinical research projects, plasmid DNA preparation services with different purity grades are offered.

Select the plasmid DNA purity suitable for your application.

Background Image

Mutagenesis

Do you need mutational variants of your synthetic DNA? We charge only 99,- € for each mutation of your basic sequence (up to 3 kb). Large series of mutated constructs are no longer time-consuming projects.

Facilitate screening multiple variants of your target gene.

Background Image

Cloning into your own vector

The vector needed for your application is not included in our standard vector offering? We are happy to clone the DNA we synthesize for you into your own vector. All you have to do is to provide us with the vector of your interest.

Have your gene delivered in your own vector.

Gene Fragment Synthesis

Gene Fragments are double-stranded, linear DNA molecules which can be used independently or be easily assembled and cloned into the vector of your choice using a variety of cloning methods, including Gibson Assembly.

Benefit from more economical pricing and greater flexibility.

    »Why I choose the services of BioCat? – The degree of customization. Not only fulfilled BioCat my gene synthesis requests regardless of their complexity in terms of gene length, repetitive sequences, or GC content. Cloning and even assemblies into the target vector of my choice with a reasonable turnaround really put my science on fast track. Customization actually did not stop there and included the support by friendly and competent BioCat representative – from the initial request beyond timely delivery.«

    »Since I am a BioCat customer benefiting from their affordable and reliable gene synthesis service, my projects obtained an entirely new dimension. My group is rather small and the budget usually restricted our work to a few more complex constructs with some ideas being abandoned due to simple economic considerations.
    Recently, I have deposited some of my own favourite vectors with the company and my group and I can focus our research more fully on science and leave the most of the cloning to BioCat.«
