Bacterial and plasmid vectors are pivotal tools in molecular cloning, serving as the method to introduce recombinant DNA into a host cell. This process involves crafting DNA molecules and delivering them into a host cell. These vectors play a crucial role in transferring recombinant DNA into bacteria for the expression of proteins.
The primary categories in bacterial and plasmid vectors include E. coli expression vectors and other bacterial expression vectors. The E. coli expression system enables swift recombinant protein expression and subsequent cost-effective large-scale production. It is particularly advantageous for expressing antigens and functional proteins that are non-glycosylated. These techniques find applications in genetics, molecular biology, bioinformatics, and various sectors including hospitals, home care, specialty clinics, and others.

The bacterial & plasmid vectors market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $0.72 billion in 2024 to $0.82 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising prevalence of chronic diseases, prevalence of infectious diseases, aging population, increased healthcare spending, government initiatives, increased awareness of preventive healthcare.
The bacterial & plasmid vectors market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.31 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand for point-of-care testing, gene and cell therapy, synthetic biology, crispr-cas technology, increased bioproduction, environmental and agricultural applications, expansion of biomanufacturing, growing focus on personalized medicine. Major trends in the forecast period include customized vector solutions, safety and ethical considerations, advanced vector delivery methods, data integration and analysis, viral vector alternatives, vector customization services, vector delivery optimization.
The bacterial & plasmid vectors market is expected to witness increased demand in the forthcoming years due to the rising prevalence of cancer and infectious diseases. Bacteria serve as essential vectors for delivering recombinant proteins into target cells, aiding in the treatment of cancer and various infectious diseases. For example, a report published by the American Cancer Society, a US-based non-profit organization, in April 2024 highlighted that approximately 609,000 cancer-related deaths occurred in 2022, with an estimated 1.9 million new cancer cases identified in the United States. The report further projected around 620,000 cancer deaths in 2024, indicating a slight increase in mortality rates. As a result, the rising prevalence of cancer and various infectious diseases, combined with the growing demand for bacterial and plasmid vectors for gene therapy, is expected to drive revenue growth in the bacterial and plasmid vectors market.
The growth of the bacterial and plasmid vectors market is expected to be propelled by the increasing number of clinical trials. Clinical trials refer to research studies involving human volunteers aimed at assessing the safety and efficacy of medical treatments, interventions, drugs, therapies, devices, or diagnostic procedures. These trials specifically evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Bacterial and Plasmid Vectors when used as part of therapeutic interventions, typically involving testing the vectors in human subjects to assess their ability to deliver therapeutic genes or gene-editing tools to target cells without causing harm. For instance, a report from Xtalks, a Canada-based digital health company, revealed that by May 17, 2023, a total of 452,604 clinical studies were registered on ClinicalTrials.gov, with 64,838 actively seeking participants. This marked a substantial increase compared to the more than 365,000 registered trials reported in early 2021. The rising number of clinical trials is a key driver stimulating the growth of the bacterial and plasmid vectors market.
Major players in the bacterial and plasmid vectors market are concentrating on developing advanced solutions, such as Adeno-Associated Viral (AAV) Vectors, to improve gene therapy applications and meet the rising demand for effective therapeutic options. An AAV vector is a virus-based vehicle used in gene therapy to deliver genetic material into target cells. For example, in March 2023, Charles River Laboratories, an India-based chemical manufacturer, introduced an off-the-shelf helper plasmid. This product offers several unique advantages, including immediate and reliable availability, consistent quality fit for purpose, kanamycin antibiotic resistance, animal component-free production, and royalty-free usage from research through to commercial stages. These features support the acceleration of production timelines for AAV-based gene therapies while streamlining complex supply chains in the manufacturing process.
Major companies in the bacterial and plasmid vectors market are increasingly focusing on developing advanced solutions, such as Innovative Plasmids, to optimize the production of adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors. An innovative plasmid is a plasmid (a small, circular DNA molecule) that is specially designed or modified to perform specific advanced functions in biotechnology, gene therapy, or scientific research. For example, in March 2024, Polyplus, a France-based biotechnology company, launched the pPLUS AAV-RC2 plasmid. This new product aims to streamline the manufacturing process by offering a ready-to-use solution that enhances both the efficiency and reliability of vector production. Key features include a ready-to-use format optimized for AAV2 production, significant improvements in viral genome yield when paired with Polyplus transfection reagents, and high-quality manufacturing at a GMP-compliant facility.
In December 2022, Polyplus, a France-based biotechnology company, acquired Xpress Biologics for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is part of Polyplus's strategy to expand its plasmid DNA engineering technology and services portfolio, thereby enhancing its capabilities in gene therapy and improving the manufacturing processes for advanced therapeutic products. Xpress Biologics, a Belgium-based biotechnology company, specializes in bacterial and plasmid vectors, further strengthening Polyplus's position in the biotechnology sector.
