Researchers can insert DNA fragments or genes into a plasmid vector, creating a so-called recombinant plasmid. This plasmid can be introduced into a bacterium by way of the process called ...

The Gene Vector Core was awarded the Blue Flame Award. The award is given to scientists who have at least one plasmid deposited that has been distributed at least 100 times. The Gene Vector Core was ...

The global viral vectors and plasmid DNA manufacturing market was valued at $918.37 million in 2019, and is estimated to reach at $4,978.54 million by 2027, registering a CAGR of ...

The ‘transfer plasmid’ or lentiviral vector contains the transgene of interest, while the ‘envelope plasmid’ contains genes for proteins that appear on the virus surface, the ‘packaging ...

Unlike typical bacterial conjugation systems that are activated upon bacterial contact with solid surfaces, the pLS20 plasmid ...

Immunizing the host with a piece of viral DNA rather than an antigenic protein fragment of the virus, helps to stimulate the generation of cell-mediated immunity (Fig. 2). DNA vaccines contain the ...
