Every plasmid you can imagine, built on 30 years of verified clones.
Search over a million sequence-verified cDNA clones across human, mouse, and rat — or tell us the gene, vector, promoter, tag, and selection marker, and we'll match or build the exact construct your experiment needs.

Nine clone formats. One catalog.
Not sure which family fits your experiment? Construct My Plasmid will recommend one automatically — or use the reference below. The two foundational formats are flagged first, then branch out for validation, delivery, or a specific assay.

Construct My Plasmid
Don't see the exact construct you need? Build it. Choose your gene, vector, promoter, tag, and selection marker — we'll match it to a ready clone or shuttle a new one.
Powered by the PrecisionShuttle® cloning system
Coverage and control, without the guesswork.
The largest verified collection
78,000+ human, 58,000+ mouse, and 18,000+ rat TrueORF clones, plus 45,000+ human, 30,000+ mouse, and 18,000+ rat untagged TrueClones.
Sequence-verified, every time
Each clone is sequenced end-to-end and matched against its reference before it ever ships — so what you order is what you get.
Tag it your way
Myc-DDK (FLAG) or GFP tags built in, N- or C-terminal — or go untagged with a native TrueClone for functional studies.
PrecisionShuttle® system
Cut-and-paste subcloning moves any ORF into a wide panel of destination vectors — no re-sequencing required after each transfer.
Built for hard-to-transfect cells
Lentiviral plasmids and ready-made particles for primary cells, T cells, NK cells, HSCs, and iPSCs.
Nothing off the shelf? We'll build it
Genes that are GC-rich, toxic to standard cloning bacteria, or simply not yet catalogued — our custom cloning team takes it from there.
Clones that work the first time — and a team that backs them up.
Across three decades and a million clones, the two things researchers mention most are reliability of the reagent itself and how quickly our team responds when a project needs a custom construct or a fast quote.
Know your gene. Not sure about the rest?
