Daicel Arbor Biosciences is excited to announce sponsorship opportunities for iGEM teams in this year’s competition. In order to help enable the success of participating teams, we are providing myTXTL® Cell-Free Protein Expression kits and reagents, including the technical support needed to use the myTXTL system to achieve project goals. myTXTL has been used for protein expression, gene circuits, metabolic pathway design, biosensors, artificial cells, and rebooting bacteriophage. Simply adding DNA to our master mix facilitates protein expression that starts within minutes, so this is an opportunity to greatly increase the efficiency of iGEM project work.  

If you would like to take advantage of our support, contact us at igem@arbor.daicel.com with the information below so we can learn a bit more about your project.
