Life Technologies launches Vector NTI Express Designer

Designed for molecular biology, metabolic engineering, genetic engineering, and synthetic biology professionals, Vector NTI Express Designer features an integrated gene synthesis service for sequence submission and order placement.

The Express Designer software tools will also help the customers to design custom DNA parts and submit them directly to Life Technologies’ GeneArt portal for synthesis.

Life Technologies synthetic biology general manager and vice president Nathan Wood said that the molecular and synthetic biologists can now move from construct design to synthesis faster than ever before.

"This launch represents a true game changer in the ease, speed and accuracy with which investigators can design and order DNA customized to their needs, as well as the increased confidence they can have that constructs will perform successfully in their experiments," Wood added.

Built on the Vector NTI Sequence Analysis and Bioinformatic Tools platform, Vector NTI Express Designer enables rational bio-design on the computing architectures.
