Online Catalog Offers 25,000 Human Genes

By Biotechdaily staff writers
Posted on 08 Nov 2004
A comprehensive online gene catalog, called PlanetGene, offers more than 25,000 human genes commercially available for scientific research.

Each gene has been codon optimized for expression in both bacterial and mammalian systems, allowing users to easily move between the two experimental systems. More...
The genes have also been designed to avoid features that are often problematic in protein expression, such as mRNA secondary structure, repetitive DNA elements, and internal translation initiation sites. The PlanetGene online catalog of codon-optimized genes is easily accessed and searched on the basis of amino acid sequences, keywords, or Genbank accession numbers.

"Easy access to genes that are already condon optimized will drastically reduce the cost, time, and resources to maintain a strong R&D pipeline,” said Jeremy Minshull, Ph.D., president of DNA 2.0 (Menlo Park, CA, USA), which has launched the catalog. PlanetGene can be accessed through the company's website.

The company states that from order to delivery takes only two weeks. Furthermore, the codon-optimized genes from PlanetGene will start at only about U.S.$100. Reliability is another important factor. The integrity of each gene is verified by double-stranded DNA sequencing to ensure 100% accuracy.
