OriGene Technologies, Inc

OriGene Technologies was founded as a research tool company focused on the creation of the largest commercial collection of full-length human cDNAs in a standard expression vector. The availability of the complete human genome sequence and the subsequent development of genome-based tools have enabled the identification of relevant drug targets through system biology approaches. OriGene's vision is to prepare comprehensive, genome wide research tools and technology platforms to enable scientists to study complete biological pathways, thus enabling a better understanding of disease mechanisms including cancer and stem cell research.

OriGene Technologies uses high-throughput, genome wide approach to develop products for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and academic research. Our flagship product is the cDNA clone collection, a searchable gene bank of over 30,000 human full-length TrueClone cDNA collection and over 25,000 TrueORF cDNA clones. From our TrueORF cDNA clones, we have developed the largest offering of full length human proteins expressed in mammalian cells, ideal for functional studies. In 2010, OriGene initiated the TrueMAB project to develop mouse monoclonal antibodies against protein antigens with the goal to develop protein assays for every human protein. In August 2010, OriGene acquired Blue Heron Biotech and now offers complete molecular biology services from codon optimization, gene synthesis, protein expression and assay development.

In addition, OriGene offers unique gene expression products such as TissueScan cancer tissue qPCR arrays and tissue biorepository for biomarker discovery and validation

OriGene is committed to its mission to be “Your Gene Company”, in supplying everything a researcher needs for gene based research.
