About DNA Software, Inc.
DNA Software, Inc. was founded in 2000 to commercialize the advances in nucleic acid chemistry discovered by world-renowned expert Dr. John SantaLucia, Jr. (the company’s Chief Scientific Officer). DNA Software’s technologies have become the standard of excellence for nucleic acid research and diagnostics development.
DNA Software is a unique software company considering that it conducts original wet lab research. The company’s software programs are the most accurate and comprehensive tools available because its advanced algorithms and models are driven by a large database of thousands of diverse, wet lab-derived, experimental results. DNA Software’s tools correctly design and simulate complicated experiments on the first attempt. Customers can simulate thousands of experiments with the software before running a single experiment in a wet lab. Thus, DNA Software’s technologies save customers significant time, resources, and money that would have been wasted on trial-and-error experimentation.
DNA Software offers contract research, custom software development, commercial web applications, and scientific consulting for nucleic acid research. The company also licenses packaged software tools that help scientists quickly and accurately develop new assays, diagnostics, and therapeutics. OMPTM (Oligonucleotide Modeling PlatformTM), the core engine that runs all of DNA Software’s tools, models in silico the folding and hybridization of nucleic acids with exception accuracy. Visual OMPTM is a platform program for the analysis of nucleic acid secondary structure plus the design, simulation, and optimization of probes/primers, RT-PCR, qPCR, Multiplex PCR, Taqman, Beacons, Scorpions, Microarrays, SNP detection, FRET assays, RNAi, LATE-PCR, plus new formats. ThermoBLASTTM quickly and accurately scans DNA, RNA, or modified oligonucleotides against large genome databases, identifies all hybridizations under actual reaction conditions, and detects all extensible, off-target amplicons. The ModifiedsTM module adds modified nucleotides (e.g. LNA, PNA, Morpholino, Deoxyuridine-DNA, Inosine, Isocytosine, Isoguanine, plus many more) to OMPTM and ThermoBLASTTM. OMP Developer EditionTM (OMP DETM) and ThermoBLAST Developer EditionTM (TB DETM) bring customizable, command line, high-throughput computing power to large assay design and genome scanning projects or enterprise applications.
The company has expanded its original DNA and RNA-based, molecular biology solutions to include modified nucleotides, oligonucleotide kinetics, and structural biology.
