Introduction

Plasmid – The most commonly used vector in genetic engineering. It is a smaller DNA molecule that can autonomously replicate, typically attached to the cell's non-chromosomal or nuclear region DNA (also known as the cell’s extrachromosomal DNA). Most plasmids are closed, circular, double-stranded DNA molecules.


A plasmid vector is an artificially constructed plasmid designed for laboratory use based on natural plasmids. Compared to natural plasmids, plasmid vectors usually carry one or more selective marker genes (such as antibiotic resistance genes) and an artificially synthesized multiple cloning site (MCS) with several restriction enzyme recognition sites. Non-essential sequences are removed to minimize the molecular weight, facilitating genetic engineering operations.


Plasmids can be obtained in large quantities through plasmid amplification. This typically involves transforming the bacterial plasmid into Escherichia coli (competent cells), then using E. coli to amplify the plasmid through bacterial culture. The plasmid is then harvested by extraction methods. Only a small amount of plasmid (1µg) is needed for amplification, making plasmid reuse very convenient. Therefore, after plasmid shipment, there will be no returns or exchanges if there are no sequence issues.




Features
Stable and Easily Amplifiable
Closed-circular double-stranded DNA molecules are highly stable. When a plasmid carrying foreign DNA fragments is introduced into a recipient cell, it either replicates autonomously within the cell or integrates into the chromosomal DNA, where it replicates synchronously with the chromosomal DNA.
Transient and Stable Transfection
Transient expression has a short duration, but stable cell lines can also be constructed. For easily transfectable cells, transfection reagents can be used to introduce the plasmid, while difficult-to-transfect cells can be treated via electroporation. Transient expression can be achieved, or stable cell lines can be established, though the latter takes more time.
Long Cargo Sequence
After construction, standard vectors can accommodate longer target genes. In addition to foreign shRNA and shorter cDNA fragments, standard plasmids can also carry longer cDNA fragments, allowing for better study of cell phenotype changes caused by the upregulation of longer coding or non-coding genes.
Advantages

(1) Genomeditech has a professional technical research team and extensive experience in molecular cloning.

(2) Genomeditech currently offers a variety of tool vectors, applicable to various expression systems.

(3) Genomeditech can construct different target vectors according to customer requirements.
