Publication: Drug Discovery Today

The supply of plasmid DNA has become a major bottle neck in the ever-expanding genetic medicine sector, therefore, the development of new, scalable, faster DNA production technologies such as doggybone DNA (dbDNA™) is vital for the success of this sector going forward.

dbDNA supports the scalable generation of high-quality GMP DNA free of bacterial sequences and has been proven both as an enabling technology for the production of viral vectors and mRNA, and as a direct therapeutic.

About doggybone DNA (dbDNA)

Doggybone DNA (dbDNA™) is linear, double stranded, covalently closed DNA vector which is produced in an enzymatic manufacturing process. It can incorporate a gene of interest from 600bp to >20kb making it very flexible to support a range of genetic medicines.
