The Future of Cloning is Smarter and Faster


Improve your core molecular biology procedures, and improve your results


Features


Beyond the Basics of Molecular Cloning


SnapGene is the most popular cloning tool for a reason. It’s fast, smart and extremely user-friendly.

  • Intuitive technology identifies design flaws in cloning procedures so they can be corrected

  • Simulate standard PCR using your own primers, or allow SnapGene to design them automatically

  • Specialised cloning tools ensure fast accurate construct design for all major molecular cloning techniques


Verify your project design and prevent errors


Automatically View Plasmid Features

  • Annotate features on your plasmids using SnapGene’s curated feature database or your own custom features

  • Display enzyme sites, features, primers, ORFs, translations and more on plasmid maps or in detail on the sequence view

  • Customize your maps with flexible annotation and visualization controls


Check Your Sequences with Alignment Tools

  • Validate your sequenced constructs match your simulated construct using the powerful Align to Reference tool

  • Align sequences using trusted algorithms for pairwise and multiple alignments, including Clustal Omega, MAFFT, MUSCLE and T-Coffee

  • Assemble Sanger sequencing reads into complete contigs using CAP3


Realistic Agarose Gel Simulations

  • Visualise exactly what you will see in the lab with SnapGene’s empirically based gel simulation algorithm

  • Flexible configuration of all gel elements, including number of lanes, % agarose, running time and a full set of MW markers

  • Record and identify your band of interest with detailed fragment information for each lane

Configured for automatic documentation and easy data exchange


Automatically Create a Graphical History

  • Record experimental procedures and changes to documents visually

  • Show history colors in history, map and sequence views

  • Fully resurrectable sequence history embedded in the document

Convert and Share Data

  • Store, search, share and organize your sequences, files and maps

  • Work collaboratively with sequences stored on sharable drives, servers or cloud services

  • Easily read and export sequences, annotations and other metadata from many common file formats
