"TWIST is excellent for producing the correct sequences you want with an impressive turnaround time of ~7 days. The price is also very competitive and transparent. The only downside is the slightly clunky sequence submission platform. You will find yourself going back and forth with your desired sequence changing the GC content in some areas and avoiding repeat regions. Also be sure to give your file a short name as the system does not deal with long names. Besides this, ordering is very straight forward and my interactions with customer service reps has also been very good."

Cost effective good quality gene fragments!
Application Area:Molecular Biology
"Our company has been very happy with Twist gene fragments and clonal genes. They're comparable to the other synthesis companies in terms of application with Gibson and other cloning methods and sometimes see point mutations but out of 6 clones it's usually plenty to find a correct insert. Their clonal genes make streamlining cloning much easier and the few genes that gave very low yield seemed problematic in E. coli so they recloned it in a low copy number plasmid for us. Their cost is extremely competitive and they're our go-to for gene fragments as long as the sequence passes their algorithm."

Application Area:Gene fragment (dsDNA) for cloning / recombination
"Twist is extremely easy to use and provides the lowest cost for gene fragment compared with their competitors. The product quality is always perfect and as advertised. The pricing makes it possible to take on much more ambitious goals and their option to clone the genes for us adds even more possibility for increased impact. We have found that it is rarely cost effective to clone in-house anymore, and when it is, we can often still use gene fragments to speed the process along and give us more options. Their vector onboarding allows us to use our in-house vectors for their clonal gene service, but most of the time their existing vector options are perfect for our applications. The genes take around 3 weeks to arrive, so we plan further in advance and take on more projects during the meantime. Their website and UI is extremely intuitive and easy to work with, unlike many competitor websites. I love working with Twist and I go to them first for any cloning project I have."

"I have worked in Molecular Biology for over 20 years and have pretty much seen it all in terms of experience with different vendors. I can confidently say that Twist checks ALL the boxes.

"I ordered gene fragments from Twist to clone a number of point mutants of a gene of interest into a yeast plasmid. Twist's price was half that of the nearest competitor (IDT gBlocks) even including shipping.

I received over 1 microgram of DNA per fragment I ordered, which saved me the trouble of having to amplify things by PCR.
