It is easy to deposit plasmids with Addgene! For each plasmid that you would like to deposit, we simply need some plasmid information and 15 µL of DNA in a 1.5 mL microfuge tube at a concentration of 0.1 -1µg/µL (or bacterial streaks, if you prefer).
Plasmid data can be entered online. To start your deposit, see our deposit page or watch our video. Addgene will provide shipping materials and pay for the shipping of your samples to Addgene's facility.
We do ask you to contact us for large plasmid deposits, as large collections are put through a review process before Addgene is able to accept them. If you would like to deposit more than 50 plasmids, please email deposit@addgene.org for additional information.
If you have specific questions about depositing plasmids with Addgene, you can always contact us at deposit@addgene.org.
