X Abstract

The use of synthetic DNA can avoid problems that are sometimes encountered with conventional molecular biology techniques using DNA with high GC content, strong secondary structures, or repeat sequences. However, very complex DNA may still resist PCR and synthesis of DNA from oligonucleotides. In the method described here, separately synthesized DNA segments were seamlessly joined independently of the presence of restriction sites in the target DNA. This method allowed the reconstruction of complex DNA by concatenation of easily synthesized segments and permitted repeated swapping of segments, from a few nucleotides to large fragments of complex DNA for phenotypic analysis.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
