RNA Synthesis

High-Performance RNA Synthesis for Advanced Applications

mRNA, self-amplifying RNA, and sgRNA solutions for research and preclinical development
Crystal NAX provides flexible RNA synthesis services designed to support a wide range of RNA-based applications, from therapeutic development to gene editing and immunization studies. Our RNA synthesis capabilities span mRNA and self-amplifying RNA (saRNA) for protein expression, as well as high-fidelity sgRNA for genome engineering.

Built on advanced process engineering and quality-focused workflows, our services enable rapid iteration, flexible scaling, and reliable performance to support modern RNA research programs.

mRNA Synthesis

mRNA, saRNA (saRNA) and circular RNA (circRNA) are powerful modalities for transient protein expression and therapeutic research. Their performance depends heavily on sequence design, synthesis efficiency, and impurity control.

Crystal NAX delivers one-stop synthesis from your coding sequence to high-quality mRNA/saRNA/circRNA. Our workflow is optimized for speed, flexibility, and quality, with custom solutions for sequence optimizations, modifications, high throughput for screening, special impurity removal and specific characterizations, supporting diverse research and preclinical use cases.
