For researchers who need long custom DNA constructs for pharmaceutical development (e.g.,viral genomes) or for metabolic engineering, pathway engineering, or synthetic biology, Thermo Fisher Scientific offers a fast, reliable, and economical solution—our proprietary Invitrogen™ GeneArt™ Gene Synthesis services.
Genes and sequences with challenging features such as complex secondary structure, repetitive sequences (direct or indirect), high (>80%) or low (<20%) GC content, or long polypurine/polypyrimidine runs cannot be synthesized using our standard process. For these projects, we have developed a unique proprietary technology that employs specially modified and purified oligonucleotides, and more sophisticated gene assembly methods.
