DNA Synthesis

Flexible DNA Solutions for Advanced RNA Development

From high-throughput linear DNA to reliable plasmid preparation for RNA and gene delivery programs
Crystal NAX provides flexible DNA synthesis solutions designed to support modern RNA and delivery research. Our DNA capabilities span both cell-free linear DNA (LDNA) production for speed and purity, and traditional plasmid DNA (pDNA) preparation for established workflows.

By offering complementary DNA formats, we enable our partners to select the most appropriate template strategy based on their application, timeline, and scalability needs—supporting efficient RNA synthesis, screening, and preclinical development.

Linear DNA (LDNA) Solutions

Linear DNA produced using cell-free technologies offers a fast, clean, and highly adaptable alternative to plasmid-based templates. LDNA is particularly well-suited for high-throughput mRNA synthesis and screening, rapid prototyping, and applications where speed, purity, and flexibility are critical.


Crystal NAX leverages advanced cell-free DNA synthesis platforms to enable efficient LDNA production tailored for RNA synthesis workflows.

Key Advantages

  • Cell-free production minimizing host-derived contaminants
  • Rapid turnaround compared to plasmid-based approaches
  • High-throughput capability for parallel construct generation
  • Flexible sequence design without cloning constraints
  • Seamless integration with mRNA and saRNA synthesis workflows

Plasmid DNA (pDNA) Preparation

Plasmid DNA remains a widely used and reliable DNA format for RNA production and gene delivery applications. Traditional pDNA preparation provides a familiar and robust solution for programs requiring established vector backbones or compatibility with legacy workflows.

Crystal NAX offers high-quality plasmid DNA preparation from micrograms to milligrams as a complementary service to support diverse project needs and development strategies. Complex sequences, such as extended polyA tails and ITRs can be well supported at NAX.

Key Advantages

  • Well-established and widely accepted DNA template format
  • Compatible with standard RNA synthesis and downstream workflows
  • Suitable for applications requiring specific vector architectures
  • Reliable performance for routine and repeat-use programs
  • Flexible preparation options aligned with research-scale needs
