During our research into DNA structure and function, we developed tiny DNA vectors. Minivectors can be ordered at Twister Biotech. Containing only DNA sequence of choice minivectors are not only useful for the study of DNA and the proteins, nucleic acids or drugs that act on DNA but are superior DNA delivery vectors.
