We kindly inform you that the National
Recombinant Gene Bank (NRGB) of Iran has
been inaugurated since spring 2008 in Iran.
The services are available to the domestic
and Local scientific media. Many Institutes,
universities and scientific centers
throughout the world have already organized
such plasmid and host banks for domestic and
local research purposes. These include:
Weizmann Institute with a collection of 103
plasmids, EMBL and PSMZ centers in Germany,
Plasmid Center in the University of
Birmingham and Rosalind Franklin Laboratory
in England and plasmid bank of BCCM
collection of micro-organisms in Belgium to
name a few . In addition to maintenance and
collection of different Prokaryotic
and Eukaryotic hosts and vectors, NRGB has
arranged for three platforms of consultation
and vector design, DNA manufacturing and
protein expression and purification which
cover a broad range of services such as
production of endotoxin free plasmids and
client ordered specification as well as
providing relevant workshops. Moreover, the
management for collaboration based services
provides access to a huge pool of genes and
construct to domestic scientists for mutual
activities.
