Vector and Cloning Options

Eurofins Genomics Blue Heron provides several vector options for your convenience. Our gene synthesis capacity and cloning expertise allows us to synthesize any desired features to be used for vector modification or de novo vector synthesis. Providing your own vector for custom cloning is simple with our online ordering tool. Alternatively, clone your synthesis products into any of our standard high copy vectors with no cloning fee. We offer high copy vectors with and without multiple cloning sites allowing you the flexibility to flank your insert with any desired cloning site for your downstream processes. Eurofins Genomics Blue Heron also offers a selection of expression vectors for RUO applications.

Custom Cloning Solutions

Eurofins Genomics Blue Heron’s custom cloning service provides efficient, low-cost custom cloning into any vector. We offer our standard pUC derivative vector and a selection of OriGene expression vectors.  Alternatively, clone into any vector of your choice using your selected cloning sites.

Adding subcloning to your gene synthesis order can speed up the research process and save you valuable time. Our synthesis and cloning products are always sequence verified to ensure quality and sequence fidelity. Custom cloning by Blue Heron adds minimal time to the production of your gene synthesis order.

Free archiving is provided for every order with Blue Heron, so ordering additional DNA or requesting subcloning at a later date is always cost effective. Eliminate the need for multiple vendors with gene synthesis, custom cloning, and plasmid preparation from Blue Heron.
