Custom and Pre-Designed Pooled shRNA Library Ordering Information
To request a quote or place an order for a custom or pre-designed pooled lentiviral shRNA library, contact us by email at sales@cellecta.com or by phone at toll-free at 877-938-3910 and let us know your requirements. Please refer to the list below for the choices available. We would be happy to discuss the details of the project either by phone or in person, and we will prepare a quotation and contract research agreement for your approval.
- Any set of genes (e.g. cell, cancer, signaling pathway, biological process, or apoptosis-specific) (custom only)
- Redundancy (number of shRNAs per gene), with RefSeq accession numbers (Cellecta can provide help if needed) (custom only)
- Cloning vector from Cellecta, or supply your own (vectors which require custom service licensing fees will require an additional down payment)
- Single or dual markers: GFP, RFP, PuroR, BleoR, or other
- Marker promoter: CMV, EF1, PGK, UbiC or other
- shRNA promoter: H1 or U6
- Tet-regulated or non-regulated shRNA expression
Cellecta will design the set of shRNAs using our proprietary algorithm (custom only), construct the plasmid library in any vector, perform Q.C. by sequence analysis, package into pseudoviral particles, and send you the plasmid and/or packaged pooled shRNA library. Depending on the complexity, validation, and vector, the delivery time will range from 2 to 4 months. Listed below are the deliverables for the Custom Pooled shRNA Libraries and Pre-Designed Validated Pooled shRNA Libraries.
| Custom shRNA Library Size | # of target mRNAs | Oligo Pool Only | Plasmid | Plasmid + Packaged |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 6,500 shRNAs | 500 - 1,000 | 5 pmol | >200 µg | 2 × 107 ifu |
| Up to 13,000 shRNAs | 1,000 - 2,000 | 5 pmol | >200 µg | 5 × 107 ifu |
| Up to 27,000 shRNAs | 2,500 - 5,000 | 5 pmol | >200 µg | 1 × 108 ifu |
| Up to 55,000 shRNAs | 5,000 - 10,000 | 5 pmol | >200 µg | 2 × 108 ifu |
Price depends on several factors, including length of oligos, titer, whether the hits are known genes (described in the literature) or novel genes, vector modifications required, etc. Standard oligo shRNA libraries are designed by Cellecta, target known genes, and have standard titers of 1 — 10 × 106 ifu/ml.
Custom shRNA Library Delivery Times:
- Oligos Only (compatible with Cellecta vector): 5-7 weeks
- Oligos Only (compatible with customer-supplied vector): 8-12 weeks
- Plasmid shRNA Library Construction (in Cellecta vector): 10-12 weeks
- Plasmid + Packaged Library (in Cellecta vector): 12-16 weeks
| Pre-Designed Validated shRNA Libraries (Human & Mouse) | # of target mRNAs | Oligo Pool Only | Plasmid | Plasmid + Packaged |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Druggable Genome, 25K shRNAs | 8,000 | 1 pmol | 100 µg | 1 × 108 ifu |
| Signaling Pathways, 27K shRNAs | 5,000 | 1 pmol | 100 µg | 1 × 108 ifu |
| Cancer-Specific Genes, 27K shRNAs | 5,000 | 1 pmol | 100 µg | 1 × 108 ifu |
| Disease-Specific Genes, 27K shRNAs | 5,000 | 1 pmol | 100 µg | 1 × 108 ifu |
Price depends on several factors, including titer, vector modifications required, etc. Standard oligo shRNA libraries are designed by Cellecta, target known genes, and have standard titers of 1 — 10 × 106 ifu/ml.
Pre-Designed shRNA Library Delivery Times:
- Oligos Only (compatible with Cellecta vector): Available now.
NOTE: If customization of oligo is desired, delivery time will be 6-8 weeks, and 5 pmol of oligos will be provided. - Plasmid shRNA Library Construction (in Cellecta vector): 4-6 weeks
- Plasmid + Packaged Library (in Cellecta vector): 6-8 weeks
Please allow an additional 2-6 weeks for customized vectors. Please contact Cellecta for a list of currently available vectors. Quoted price will depend on the options chosen and complexity of the project. For more detailed pricing and information or to request a quote, please contact us at sales@cellecta.com.
