Blue Heron Biotechnology

Blue Heron Biotechnology is a specialized synthetic biology company that provides high-quality gene synthesis and DNA manufacturing services. Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Bothell, Washington, the company utilizes its proprietary GeneMaker platform to design and assemble complex DNA sequences, including those that are difficult to synthesize using standard methods. Their service portfolio includes custom gene synthesis, site-directed mutagenesis, cloning, and large-scale plasmid preparation. In 2010, Blue Heron was acquired by OriGene Technologies, and it currently operates as a key division within OriGene's genomic service offerings, supporting researchers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and academic sectors worldwide.
