Introducing Twist Multiplexed Gene Fragments

Twist Multiplexed Gene Fragments are double stranded gene fragment sequences of up to 500 base pairs in length that are delivered as a pool instead of one fragment per well matrix. This pooled format of fragments enables high-throughput screening applications such as prime editing, ultra-complex CRISPR-based functional screening, peptide and protein engineering, Ab discovery, and massively parallel reporter assays (MPRA), where cost per fragment can be a barrier to the desired number of variants.

Multiplexed Gene Fragments are synthesized from user defined sequences in lengths of up to 500 base pairs per gene. These user-defined sequences are initially synthesized into oligo pools of up to 500 nucleotides in length and are then amplified in double-stranded DNA, and delivered as multiplexed gene fragments that have been carefully analyzed to ensure >90% of genes in the pool are the correct length. This product is optimized for rapid, high-throughput screening applications.

Twist's Multiplexed Gene Fragments push the limits of what we can synthesize, while fitting within the limits of what we can sequence. We can now explore sequence space in a targeted, deterministic fashion to build a holistic understanding of the mechanisms of protein binding. We will hopefully leverage that data to make new medicines.

We are trying to tailor make proteins for specific design problems. Twist's 450bp Multiplexed Gene Fragments are the ideal length for us to screen libraries of candidate proteins for ligand binding using yeast display.

Regulatory elements have been studied deeply with traditional 120 base pair libraries, but in reality many regulatory elements are much longer than that. Using ≥450 base pair Multiplexed Gene Fragments from Twist we are now able to systematically screen for regulatory elements more finely tuned to drive gene expression in our specific cell type.

MGF DATA
A Multiplexed Gene Fragment pool

Twist’s Multiplexed Gene Fragment pools achieve comprehensive representation of every sequence ordered, to ensure precise control over variant construction for more targeted and rational screening.

A Multiplexed Gene Fragment pool of dual gRNA variants of 500 bp shows complete fragment representation with minimal dropouts (Fig 1) as does a pool of triple gRNA variants of 450 bp (Fig 2). Lastly, a Multiplexed Gene Fragment pool with variants containing GC content across a wide range including fragments with up to 80% GC shows high representation and minimal bias (Fig 3).
