SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Oct. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Plasmidsaurus, the leading global Sequencing as a Service company, today announced the launch of its new RNA-Seq service. Applying Plasmidsaurus's innovative approach to sequencing as a service to Illumina short read applications, Plasmidsaurus is bringing the same speed, convenience, and insights they pioneered for plasmid sequencing to gene expression analysis. Attendees at this week's American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) 2025 Annual Meeting can meet with Plasmidsaurus scientists and get an early look at the new intuitive RNA-Seq analytics exploration tools.
"Scientists deserve better services," said Mark Budde, co-founder and CEO of Plasmidsaurus. "Getting good transcriptomics data shouldn't take weeks of hassle. Send us cells and we'll get you answers."
Plasmidsaurus RNA-Seq delivers transformative advantages in RNA expression profiling:
"This is SO COOL!!!!!" said Molly Gasperini, Associate Director of Genome Engineering at the Allen Institute and early access user of Plasmidsaurus RNA-Seq. "Huge kudos to Plasmidsaurus for this incredibly fast, affordable service. We'll definitely love using this service in the future."
"We are continually inspired by our users and the creativity they bring to their experiments," said Jim Stapleton, co-founder and CTO of Plasmidsaurus. "Every day we see how seamless sequencing services unlock new applications, better workflows, and accelerated science. We can't wait to see what researchers can do with faster and more accessible RNA-Seq."
Plasmidsaurus services allow researchers to reimagine complex workflows and accelerate traditional R&D timelines, making what historically has taken weeks of planning and analysis into a routine process for verifying cell lines and samples, guiding experimental progress, and getting rapid readouts. With Plasmidsaurus RNA-Seq, gene expression analysis can be as easy as plasmid sequencing: drop cells in a local dropbox and get results fast. You don't have to wait for a quote, handle complicated library prep, or build your own bioinformatics pipeline.
The service is ideally suited for:
The official launch of Plasmidsaurus RNA-Seq will take place at ASHG 2025 in Boston, where Plasmidsaurus will host demonstrations, share early-access data, and meet with researchers interested in piloting the service. Register to meet the Plasmidsaurus team at their happy hour on October 15, and attend their presentation on October 16th at 3pm.
