CloneCoordinate: Open-Source Software for Collaborative DNA Construction.

ABSTRACT: Custom DNA constructs have never been more common or important in the life sciences. Many researchers therefore devote substantial time and effort to molecular cloning, aided by abundant computer-aided design tools. However, support for managing and documenting the construction process, and for effectively handling and reducing the frequency of setbacks, is lacking. To address this need, we developed CloneCoordinate, a free, open-source electronic laboratory notebook specifically designed for cloning and fully implemented in Google Sheets. By maintaining a real-time, automatically prioritized task list, a uniform physical sample inventory, and standardized data structures, CloneCoordinate enables productive, collaborative cloning for individuals or teams. We demonstrate how the information
