GSL Biotech

GSL Biotech is a life science software company best known as the original developer of SnapGene, a molecular biology software product used to plan, visualize, and document DNA cloning, PCR, plasmid design, and related workflows. The company served academic, biotech, and pharmaceutical researchers rather than developing therapeutics itself. Historical SBIR records show GSL Biotech also developed software projects such as "Kamino" for streamlining molecular biology project design, execution, and documentation. The business appears to have been acquired by GraphPad Software, and SnapGene is now operated within the broader GraphPad/Dotmatics scientific software portfolio. As a result, GSL Biotech is best characterized as an acquired, commercially oriented life science software company rather than a drug developer.
