Oligo Pools
Twist Oligo Pools are highly diverse collections of single-stranded oligonucleotides synthesized using our silicon-based DNA writing technology. Our synthesis platform enables massively parallel production of hundreds of thousands of high-quality, accurate oligos per run, allowing the generation of complex and diverse oligo pools for use in applications like CRISPR screening.
How does it work?
You provide us with your oligo sequences and we will synthesize your user designed oligo pool libraries, enabling you to spend your time working on experimentation and discovery.
Highly Uniform Oligo Synthesis
NGS quality control data from a typical oligo pool containing 23,000 90mer oligos show the uniformity of the pool at 300x read coverage. The corresponding table indicates the uniformity metrics for this pool. Twist oligos are synthesized bias-free with high uniformity and complete oligo representation.
Sequencing Analysis of Oligo Pools
Sequencing analysis of Oligo Pools generated by Twist Bioscience and an array-based competitor demonstrate that the Twist Oligo Pools contain 100% of the expected sequences and a higher percentage of correct sequences than the competitor pool.
Specifications
| Oligo Length | Up to 300nt |
| Oligo Pool Size | No limits on pool size |
| Yield | >0.2 fmol average of each oligo |
| Uniformity | >90% oligos represented within <2.0x of the mean |
| Error rate | Up to 1:3000 |
| Turn-Around Time | As few as 3 days* |
| Price | Industry-leading pricing |
*Turnaround time for the standard Oligo Pool offering varies based on length and sequence complexity. Oligo Pools at 20-121 nucleotides in length range from 3-6 business days, 121-200 nucleotides in length range from 3-8 business days, and 201-300 nucleotides in length range from 5-10 business days.

New Cloned Oligo Pools
Oligo pool quality is the foundation of a successful experiment. Errors during synthesis or cloning can easily skew oligo pool quality, leading to over and underrepresentation of desired sequences. Twist now offers an optimized cloning service that allows you to further avoid the hardship that comes with testing PCR amplification conditions, selecting the right polymerases and primer pairs, as well as designing a cloning workflow. Skip the drama and let Twist Bioscience synthesize and clone oligo pools for you.
How does it work?
Just two steps away from your custom cloned Oligo Pools. You provide us with your oligo sequences and we will synthesize, amplify, and clone your user designed oligo pool libraries, enabling you to spend your time working on experimentation and discovery.
Twist Bioscience’s cloned oligo pools of all lengths have high uniformities and low error rates
Performance data of amplified and cloned oligo pools under 150 nucleotides in length even with high GC content:
Performance data of amplified and cloned oligo pools up to 300 nucleotides in length even with high GC content:
Achieve the highest quality and accuracy in your experimental data
Twist’s cloned oligo pools not only have low error rates and high uniformity, but also have low chimera rates. Chimeras are unwanted hybrid molecules that are created as a result of suboptimal PCR conditions which leads to improper amplification and recombination of different oligos within the oligo pool. See our illustration below for an example of an on-target cloned pool versus an off-target one that contains chimeras, which ultimately leads cloned oligo pools that are comprised of undesired sequences:
With Twist, you never have to worry about Chimeras! See for yourself:

| Chimera rate As low as 1.5%* |
| Turn-Around Time As few as 4 weeks* |
*Terms and Conditions: Baseline turnaround time for Cloned Oligo Pools, which includes cloning and amplification, of up to 100 and 300 nucleotides is 4-6 weeks and 6-8 weeks, respectively. An additional 2 weeks will be added to this baseline turnaround time for all Cloned Oligo Pools, regardless of length, that require new vector onboarding. Chimera rate, drop out rate, and uniformity will vary based on sequence complexity.

Guide RNA libraries for CRISPR screens
CRISPR screens involve the precise, high-throughput knock-out, interference or modulation of gene activity, allowing complex genotype-phenotype interactions to be unveiled. Oligo Pools are designed to encode multiple guide RNA molecules per gene.
Product benefits include:
- Full control over guide library design, avoiding unwanted guides, wasted sequencing, and limited guide-per-gene ratios.
- Pairing high-fidelity Cas enzymes with highly accurate synthesis for true high-fidelity screens with minimal off-target effects.
- Incredibly uniform, bias-free pools achieve amplified signal to noise ratio to achieve maximum hit detection, lowering downstream costs.
- Oligos up to 300nt make space for additional experimental elements. Add multiple guides per oligo, genome homology, or minimal promoters with ease.
Watch our webinar: Next generation CRISPR screens based on single-cell transcriptomics
Genome tiling libraries
Tiling libraries allow a comprehensive study of genomic functionality. Pools of oligos may encode peptide arrays, mRNA encoding sequences, or genome fragments.
Product benefits include:
- Tiling precise genomic regions of interest. Reduce experimental noise by ignoring unwanted sequences at the design step.
- Complex, repetitive or palindromic sequences that cannot typically be synthesized as genes can be encoded in oligos.
- Larger peptide structures or genome architectures can be encoded in oligos 300nt in length.
- Uniform synthesis minimizes oversampling required for comprehensive screening.

High throughput genetic control screens
Understanding the genetic elements controlling gene expression and regulation has broad application in synthetic biology and development of potential disease treatment. Oligo Pools power high-throughput screens of genetic control, including gene expression profiling and reporter-based applications.
Product benefits include:
- High-quality pools ensure you can interrogate every base for functionality
- High uniformity means you screen less to find your answers
- Up to 300nt pools gives you the flexibility to add multiple elements or homology regions
Watch our webinar: Epitranscriptome Screening on TechNetworks
Fluorescence in-situ hybridization
Fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) allows the abundance and spatial organization of nucleic acids in biological samples to be directly visualized. Oligo Pools can encode probes that when bound to fluorescent markers provide tunable, programmable visualization of large numbers of targets.
Product benefits include:
- Rapid FISH probe development
- Sequence control enables effective targeting
- Longer oligos enable more specific targeting
