A Rapid Combinatorial Approach to Assembling Synthetic Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Protein Expression Vectors.

Vector construction and gene cloning are ubiquitous techniques essential to all fields of biological and medical research. They are the first steps in many endeavors leading to expressing proteins to understand gene function and regulation. However, they can often be rate-limiting, particularly in multi-gene studies, due to the time and effort required to assemble gene constructs and to identify the optimal constructs for protein expression.The SureVector system was developed to address this by enabling the rapid and reliable assembly of multiple DNA modules into a recombinant plasmid containing a gene-of-interest (GOI). It harnesses the power of synthetic biology to combine DNA modules from standard parts into a customized vector that expresses proteins in bacterial, mammalian, or yeast cells. The key advantages of the innovative SureVector system include rapid custom vector generation, enhanced flexibility to assemble new vectors quickly as experimental requirements change, and the reliable and precise assembly of fully interchangeable standard DNA modules that retain their functionality. The SureVector system is the only next-generation plasmid assembly technology to guarantee assembly of multiple functional DNA modules.
