How long does it take to make a custom gene?

Synthesis time depends on the length of the custom gene.

Length of custom gene Time to ship after order confirmation (business days)
Up to 500 bp 8
501–1500 bp 12
1501–3000 bp 18
3001–5000 bp 25
 More than 5000 bp Inquire*

* Longer sequences may take additional time depending on their length and complexity. Email genes@idtdna.com to submit sequences longer than 5000 bp for an official review and quote, including an estimated turnaround time.
