Plasmid Repository

What we do
DNASU is a central repository for plasmid clones and collections. We currently store and distribute over 151,000 plasmids including over 55,000 human and mouse plasmids, full genome collections from numerous organisms, the protein expression plasmids from the Protein Structure Initiative as the PSI:Biology-Materials Repository (PSI:Biology-MR), and both small and large collections from individual researchers.


20-Jan-2012:   Due to university-wide security issues, all servers, websites and email access was disabled over the past two days. If you tried to access DNASU or email us during this time, we would like to apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience while services were being restored.

Search our entire collection of plasmids, and then order them directly from the website.

Deposit Plasmids
Want to decrease the burden of distributing your most requested plasmids?  DNASU will store and distribute your plasmids too!  We accept both large and small submissions of plasmids from any laboratory.

PSI:Biology-Materials Repository (PSI:Biology-MR)
Search, order, and explore the plasmids created by the largest structural genomics effort in the United States. For more information about the PSI:Biology-MR see our recently published paper in the Journal of Structural and Functional Genomics.
