Addgene is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting sharing of
plasmid constructs described in published literature. Addgene stores
original plasmid samples submitted by scientists and distributes them
for use in advancing life science research.
Addgene, with the support of WormBase, is building a plasmid
resource for the C. elegans research community. Addgene is
actively collecting and making available plasmids used by C.
elegans researchers. Donate your popular plasmids. You get the
credit. We do the work.

Why use Addgene?
For laboratories: Addgene's service removes the burden of
archiving and distributing plasmids. Addgene stores your plasmids as
glycerol stocks in -80 C freezers, coordinates the material transfer
process with different institutions, and distributes plasmids to
scientists from academic and non-profit institutions world-wide.
For scientists: Addgene's website helps scientists find
plasmids that contain wildtype genes, mutants, and useful fusion tags
and backbone features. Access to these materials saves you time.
Support from the research community
WormBase supports Addgene's effort to collect and distribute
C. elegans plasmids.
The Journal of Cell
Biology and
Cell Press recommend their authors to submit plasmids to
Addgene.
