The financial details of the agreement have not been disclosed.
The product is based on the Gibson Assembly method.
Gibson Assembly uses a one-step, isothermal approach to enable the rapid assembly of multiple DNA fragments.
The Gibson Assembly Master Mix includes protocols for primer design, and can be used for assembly of multiple DNA fragments, including linearized vector and insert.
The product can be used by researchers to assemble such synthetic nucleic acids into larger genetic constructs.
SGI founder and CEO Craig Venter said the Gibson Assembly method is a powerful tool that will enable synthetic biology researchers to make rapid advances leading to new discoveries.
