Optimization of ligation reaction conditions in gene synthesis.
Several phosphorylation, annealing and ligation reaction conditions have been investigated for the enzymatic assembly of genes of interest. The use of longer oligodeoxyribonucleotides (40-60 bases long) also improved the enzymatic reaction. Furthermore, the use of longer oligonucleotides and the elimination of long stretches of G's or C's lowered the mutation rate.
