Breaking new ground: our longest DNA construct yet

Breaking new ground: our longest DNA construct yet
1 minute read

 

Last week marked a significant milestone for our team as we successfully delivered the longest DNA construct we've ever created—a staggering 6.5 kilobases (kb).

The significance of 6.5 kb

So, why is this 6.5 kb construct such a big deal? In the world of synthetic biology, the length of a DNA construct can greatly influence its complexity and functionality. Longer constructs can encode for more complex proteins or multiple genes, allowing for the creation of intricate biological systems. This can be particularly useful in areas such as gene therapy, metabolic engineering, and synthetic genomics.

We are incredibly proud of our team's hard work and dedication, which made this accomplishment possible. Delivering our longest DNA construct to date is a testament to our commitment to innovation and excellence. As we celebrate this achievement, we also look forward to the new opportunities it brings for scientific discovery and technological advancement.
