Service Details

Core Services

Service Name	Description	Unit	Cat. No.	Price
Economy Gene Synthesis & Subcloning	For non-complicated sequences Synthesize up to 950 bp Complimentary subcloning into pUC57, EcoRV site Sequence verification to confirm full length sequence is generated Sequence must be approved for economy synthesis by abm	1.0 μg	C078	$250.00
Gene Synthesis	For any sequence up to 4 kbp in size Genes are fully sequenced Must be ordered with Subcloning Service I (C096) Minimum charge of USD$99.00	1.0 μg	C098	Starting at USD$0.18/bp*
Subcloning Service I	Subclone any insert into an expression system of your choice. This service is intended for inserts that are compatible with restriction sites of the expression vector of choice. End sequencing of the insert is performed with this service to confirm proper insertion. For full sequencing, please refer to C197.	1.0 μg	C096	$125.00
Subcloning Service II	Subclone any insert into an expression system of your choice. This service is intended for inserts that are not compatible with restriction sites of the abm expression vector of choice, or if cloning involves customer provided plasmids. Full length DNA sequencing is performed for sequence verification. Genes over 3 kbp are subject to an additional charge of $100.00/kbp (C100).	1.0 μg	C097	$225.00
Site-directed Mutagenesis	Mutate up to 25 bp (consecutive) within a < 2 kbp fragment in any existing abm product or a provided vector. Full length sequencing to confirm presence of mutation Fragments over 2 kbp are subject to an additional charge of $100.00/kbp (C100).	1.0 μg	C047	$150.00
Additional Charge for Extra 1 kbp	Additional charge for fragments over the stated size limit ($100.00/kbp) Only applicable to C097, C047 and C128.	N/A	C100	$100.00
Promoter Change Service	Change the promoter in one of abm’s vectors or a vector of your choice to any of the following: CMV, EF1α, PGK, UbC	1.0 μg	C126	$350.00
Tag Addition/Removal Service (≤ 30 bp)	Addition/Removal of an N-terminal or C-terminal tag smaller than 30 bp	1.0 μg	C127	$250.00
Tag Addition/Removal Service (> 30 bp) *	Addition/Removal of an N-terminal or C-terminal tag larger than 30 bp Tags over 1 kbp are subject to an additional charge of $100.00/kbp (C100).	1.0 μg	C128	$350.00
Reporter Addition/Removal Service	Addition, removal or switching of a reporter (e.g. GFP, RFP, Luc) in one of abm’s vectors or a vector of your choice.	1.0 μg	C129	$350.00
Antibiotic Switching Service	Switching of a Puromycin resistance gene to Neomycin, Hygromycin or Blasticidin resistance in one of abm’s vectors or a vector of your choice.	1.0 μg	C140	$350.00

Additional lentiviral vectors available.	Additional vectors available.	Additional vectors available.

Viral packaging services available upon request.
We can also insert your gene in an inverse orientation, flanked by double lox sites, so that it will only flip for expression in cells that express Cre recombinase.
Try tissue-specific promoters for controlled gene expression.

FAQs

For the Antibiotic Switching Service, can I change the gene to a resistance marker other than Puromycin or Neomycin?

Yes, we can certainly look into this for you. Please email technical@abmgood.com for further information.
