Build DNA variant libraries
Synthetic DNA, simplified
The speed of your research shouldn’t be limited by the speed of your library services provider. Build variant libraries in your own lab — faster, cheaper, and better. Our expert design team will ensure that you get exactly what you need.
Order arrives in days — not weeks
Codex DNA provides the fastest library turnaround time in the industry
Save on your libraries
More cost-effective than traditional combinatorial and recombinatorial mutagenesis
Superior quality
Industry-leading accuracy with documentation showing percentage ratio of amino acid variation at each position
Scanning libraries
Codex DNA provides a wide variety of scanning libraries with varied single, contiguous amino acid sites, including site-saturation (NNN, NNK) and alanine scanning libraries. Design and build your own custom libraries or let our expert team guide you.
Quickly identify AA sites that are sensitive to effect

BioXp™ variant libraries
DNA variant libraries are a powerful tool for manipulating protein structure for optimization studies in discovery biology, protein engineering, and several other disciplines. In this application note, we worked with a customer to build high-quality DNA variant libraries with the BioXp™ system, the world’s only full-stack synthetic biology workstation for on-demand DNA assembly and amplification. The customer generated data for two library builds, completing the projects in 5 days, where using traditional service providers would have taken two weeks to one month — a significant time savings during the design, build, test cycle.
