Scientists Love 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!

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

TRAV2

Depositor: Michael Birnbaum

Purpose: Encodes TRAV2 allele, P2A, and TRBC to generate TCRs via cloning

Viral Prep

GfaABC1D-Lck-mCherry-ibARK

Depositor: Jun Nagai

Purpose: Ready-to-use AAV5 particles produced from GfaABC1D-Lck-mCherry-ibARK (#241241). GfaABC1D-driven expression of Lck-mCherry-ibARK. These AAV preparations are suitable purity for injection into animals.

Antibody

Anti-6xHis [N144/14] - Chim…

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.
