• We ordered vectors from Vectorbuilder already many times. We are happy with the service. The vectors work well and service is fast. I would highly recommend Vectorbuilder. We have very good experience with them.

  Dr. Rene Opavsky

  University of Florida, USA

• VectorBuilder is an intuitive tool for developing vectors at affordable prices. I was in need of a CRISPR lentiviral system with a Puro selection cassette due to working with delicate cells that cannot handle FACS sorting pressures. With their online interface, it was easy to construct the vector I wanted and received the vector in a timely manner! It was simple to produce virus and test it in our cell culture and generated clonal cells with good gene knockdown. I definitely will be ordering more vectors from VectorBuilder to finish up my thesis!

  Dr. Christophe Langouet-Astrie

  University of Colorado, USA

• We recently purchased a number of customized plasmids on VectorBuilder. They consisted of expression vectors of two or more ORFs. Our experience was satisfactory, efficient and cost-effective.

  The designing stage was facilitated by the VectorBuilder design tool online, in which many of the most commonly used sequences, like fluorescent proteins, selection drug resistance genes, and fusion or cleavage linkers were readily offered to be picked from the ORF lists. Regarding our specific sequences, once pasted into the corresponding window of the design tool, they were immediately matched with the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank) accession numbers and compared to the databases. Where there were discrepancies, we were asked which transcripts/cDNAs we preferred to use.

  After completing the order, in a matter of three to four weeks, we had in our hands 8 of the 10 plasmids, as offered. For the rest of the plasmids we provided the template for a specific sequence. Before proceeding with the cloning, they sequenced it, detected a mutation and corrected it at a low extra cost upon our approval. A week later these corrected plasmids were delivered as well. During the whole process, VectorBuilder’s European team kept a personalized email dialogue with us, enabling us to follow-up and make decisions or accept suggestions about the plasmids.

  We have satisfactorily tested every plasmid now. We think that our decision to work with VectorBuilder has boosted our research by saving us time, resources and enabling us to concentrate more on our experiments.

• Working with VectorBuilder has been a fantastic experience for our lab's vector design and AAV packaging needs. Their expertise and efficiency in handling our project were invaluable, especially given our complex requirements. The team was incredibly responsive and thorough, and Joseph Perez, in particular, was outstanding in guiding us through every step and addressing all of our questions. Thanks to their support, we received high-quality vectors in a timely manner, which has allowed us to move forward smoothly with our research.

  Dr. Yutong Shang

  Case Western Reserve University, USA

• We ordered adenovirus from VectorBuilder to overexpress our protein of interest in primary mouse hepatocytes. The ordering process, including vector design, was very fast and easy. We received the plasmid and adenovirus within the time frame that was stated during the ordering process and the transduction efficiency of the adenovirus was very high, enabling us to use a low MOI. As a bonus, we also received the control Ad-EGFP adenovirus for free. In the future, I will not use any more siRNA or classical transfection methods on primary mouse hepatocytes, just adenoviruses from VB! I can highly recommend VectorBuilder's services for vector design and adenovirus production.

  Alexander Mayer

  University of Würzburg, Germany

• I have been working with VectorBuilder from the beginning of my postdoc. I’ve chosen VectorBuilder because of the online platform to create customized vectors. It is really impressive how easy is to digitally clone and the order process. Specifically, in our paper, we’ve used VectorBuilder for several critical experiments, including the downregulation of Bassoon protein (AAV-shRNA) and to study the role of Bassoon in the propagation of tau (AAV-GFP-P2A-hTau). These experiments were extremely important to probe our hypothesis.

  Dr. Pablo A. Martínez

• Vectorbuilder is timely, communicative, easy to work with, and—most importantly—skilled at producing very high-quality viruses. We have found that the optimal multiplicity of infection for gene-editing experiments using an AAV6 donor supplied by VectorBuilder is lower than other published reports, suggesting that the provided virus is consistently of very high potency. Knowing this saves money and time.

  Dr. Brock Roberts

• I reached out to VectorBuilder for assistance in designing and producing CRISPRa constructs, as our lab currently lacks the capacity and throughput for generating lentiviral particles. I collaborated with their California territory managers and technical support team, who successfully incorporated cumate induction into the constructs. Special thanks to Demetrio and Dr. Darriba for taking the time to address all my questions. The turnaround time was impressively fast, taking only two months for four constructs. This efficiency allowed me, as a postdoctoral researcher, to focus on other projects and dedicate more time to data analysis. I’ve greatly appreciated working with them—they are reliable, responsive, and efficient. I’m delighted the constructs and cumate design yielded positive results, and I’m fortunate to have access to such a service.
