Lentivirus DNA cloning made simple!
Our comprehensive Lentivirus DNA cloning service allows users to simply enter the DNA sequence of the coding sequence (CDS) then choose a C-terminal epitope tag or fluorescent fusion protein, a promoter, and the desired form of selection from the dropdown selector. These Generation 3 constructs contain the necessary lentivirus elements for packaging plus the following elements in order: Promoter (CMV, EF-1 alpha) N-terminal tag-Your DNA (your favorite gene), Internal Ribosome Entry Site (IRES2), Selection (eGFP, DsRed, Neomycin), and the Woodchuck Posttranscriptional Regulator Element (WPRE).
Notes on Ordering: The DNA of the CDS must be a multiple of 3 and cannot have spaces to ensure the proper reading frame is designed. Adding the start (ATG) or stop (TAA, TGA, TAG) codons is optional. Multiple DNA sequences contained in a single fasta file will contain the same vector elements chosen for that order. If you have multiple sequences and want different elements, these should be entered separately.
Based on your choices, a vector will be designed, and a pdf will be sent via email prior to the start of synthesis. If you notice any issues with your vector, please contact customer service within 24 hours. Apheon Bioscience is not responsible for errors input or uploaded by the user after the start of production.
If the desired vector elements do not meet your needs, please fill out the custom vector onboarding form and we will on-board your vector, often free of charge.
Currently, lentivirus clones are delivered as a bacterial stab along with a plasmid DNA at 100 ng/ul.
