Vector Guides

VectorBuilder has consolidated knowledge in vectorology from decades of lab experience and published research to provide our vector guides. Here you can learn more about the biology, history, mechanism, and applications of various aspects of gene delivery. We’re here to ensure you have everything you need to optimize your experimental design.

Guide to Vector Systems

For each of our vector systems, we have created a guide with background, advantages/disadvantages, and expanded vector component information.

Guide to Vector Components

We have an extensive database of vector components including ORFs, promoters, markers, and linkers. For each you can find descriptions, application notes, references, and sequences.

Guide to Host Strains

Bacteria or yeast strains can be used to propagate plasmids for your gene delivery experiment. We provide highlights, genotype, antibiotic resistance, and origin information for each of our host strains.
