    摘要: A method is provided for synthesis of error-minimized nucleic acid molecules. Oligonucleotides intended to have fragments of a desired, full-length nucleotide sequence, and optionally containing other desired nucleotides, such as nucleotides for binding the oligonucleotides to a substrate, are obtained. Oligonucleotides for both strands of the desired, full-length sequence may be obtained. The oligonucleotides are amplified and assembled into a first set of molecules intended to have the desired, full-length nucleotide sequence. The first set of molecules is denatured and annealed to form a second set of molecules intended to have the desired, full-length nucleotide sequence. The second set of molecules is cut into smaller segments, for example, by mixing the molecules with endonucleases that form blunt cuts in the second set of molecules where there are sequence errors, as well as randomly along the molecules. The smaller segments are assembled into a set of molecules intended to have the desired, full-length nucleotide sequence. By promoting cutting of the molecules in this manner near the end of the nucleic acid molecule synthesis process, a set of full-length molecules can be obtained with fewer nucleotide sequence errors than can be achieved with other methods.

    摘要: The present invention relates to an in vitro method for joining a first set of double-stranded (ds) DNA molecules, comprising:
    (a) providing two or more dsDNA molecules to be joined, wherein, for each pair of dsDNA molecules to be joined, the distal region of the first DNA molecule and the proximal region of the second DNA molecule share a region of sequence homology comprising at least about 20 non-palindromic nucleotides;
    (b) treating the provided dsDNA molecules with a substantially purified enzyme having 5'-3' exonuclease activity, whereby single-stranded overhanging portions are generated in the dsDNA molecules by 5'-3' exonuclease digestion, wherein each overhanging portion contains the region of homology or a portion thereof sufficient to specifically hybridize to the overhanging portion in the other molecule of the pair;
    (c) incubating the DNA molecules generated in step (b), under conditions whereby they anneal through the overhanging portions; and
    (d) treating the annealed molecules with a substantially purified DNA polymerase and a substantially purified compatible ligase, under conditions whereby remaining single-stranded gap(s) are filled in by the polymerase and nicks are sealed by the ligase;

    thereby joining the dsDNA molecules, wherein the method is carried out in the presence of a crowding agent ,e.g. about 5% PEG.
