Twister Biotech is a small biotechnology research company based in Houston, Texas. It centers its work on MiniVectors, a platform technology that originated in Dr. Lynn Zechiedrich's laboratory at Baylor College of Medicine. MiniVectors are compact DNA circles that carry only the intended genetic sequence, making them smaller than conventional plasmids and potentially easing delivery to cells that are difficult to transfect, such as primary and stem cells. The company aims to supply MiniVectors to researchers to improve transfection efficiency and support longer-term observation of experimental effects. Its customers are researchers and laboratories in the biotechnology field seeking reliable DNA delivery into challenging cell types, situating Twister Biotech within the biotech research ecosystem with a lineage tied to Baylor College of Medicine.
