Full Length cDNA Libraries

Your entry to transcriptome research

As Distributor for DNAFORM in Australia and New Zealand, GeneWorks provides our customers access to easy access to DNAFORM’s proprietary full-length cDNA library and cloning services built around RIKEN’s Cap-Trapper technology.

The transcriptome of every cell, tissue and organism is different and there is still a lot more to find beyond what genome sequences can tell us. In particular we still have a very limited knowledge about the different splice variants derived from each gene.  Full-length cDNA clones are the entry to:

• Proteomics : Only full-length cDNAs enable the synthesis, use, and analysis of proteins.
• Gene Regulation : Only full-length cDNAs allow for promoter identification, giving you access to the regulatory information that drives gene expression.
• RNAi : The more information you have the greater your chances to prepare a specific RNAi probe.
• Splicing : Only full-length cDNA information can tell you about the true exon composition of transcripts.
• Genomics : Full-length cDNAs are needed for gene discovery and correct mapping of genomic locations.
• SNP Analysis : Only a complete and correct annotation of a gene enables functional characterisation of SNPs.

Flexible solutions to meet your needs.

Whether you need an individual cDNA library as a cloning resource, you are interested in the cloning of differentially expressed genes and functional screens, or you want to build entire cDNA clone collections, DNAFORM can make customised cDNA libraries that match your needs. Options include:

• Standard Libraries
• Normalized  Libraries for Gene Discovery Projects
• Subtracted Libraries for cloning differentially expressed genes
• Library Subtraction to enrich for the transcripts of your interest
• Pooled Libraries Including Tagging Strategies (combine up to four libraries into one)
