Skip the stab. Start with DNA.
Jump straight into experiments with Transfection-Ready DNA, prepped from plasmids in our collection. The same plasmids you love as bacterial stabs, now ready to pipette on arrival — still backed by Addgene’s quality control. Request DNA from plasmids meant for CRISPR, imaging, and more!
About Addgene
For over 20 years, our nonprofit repository has been making it easier to access useful research materials and information.
Deposit your plasmids or contribute data — we'll handle storage, distribution, and record-keeping, helping you to share your discoveries with other scientists.
Request plasmids, antibodies, and ready-to-use viral preparations for your next experiment.
Browse plasmids, antibodies or viral preps

Scientists
Addgene
Addgene has been an exceptionally useful resource for us, both because they can be trusted to supply our plasmids to other labs efficiently, and because we ourselves are constantly ordering reagents of interest that other labs have deposited. Keep up the good work!
La Jolla Institute for Immunology (La Jolla, CA)
Our optogenetic tools are sweeping throughout neuroscience, helping scientists figure out how the brain works. Without Addgene helping provide these to the world, neuroscience would be moving at a much slower pace.

Tools of the Day
Plasmid
Depositor: Emily Rosowski
Purpose: macrophage-specific promoter driving BFP in a Tol2 backbone for expression in zebrafish
Viral Prep
Antibody
Depositor: James Trimmer
Purpose: Anti-6xHis chimeric recombinant antibody. The hybridoma-derived heavy chain variable sequence and kappa light chain are fused to a rabbit IgG Fc.
