Optimizing gene payload begins with plasmid design.

That’s where the Nanoplasmid™ vector platform has shown benefits over traditional plasmids. The small (<500bp) backbone reduces potential plasmid silencing in target cells and tissues compared to plasmids containing up to 1.5–2kb of bacterial regions and junk DNA.

With benefits across applications including transposons, HDR/CRISPR, viral vectors, and mRNA; nanoplasmids are designed to replace antiquated bacterial backbones, while eliminating antibiotic marker that can cause regulatory concerns.

Join us for a discussion on how nanoplasmid benefits may accelerate therapies.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Part 1: The panel will address the unique opportunities associated with using nanoplasmids over traditional plasmids (dependent on application), including:

• AAV application: safety benefits.
• Lentiviral application: significant increase in viral titres and additional safety benefits.
• Cell therapy: reduced cell death which leads to improved performance and longevity.
•  

Part 2: The panel answers audience questions with an interactive Q&A.
