Reversible photopadlocking on double-stranded DNA

Kenzo Fujimoto, Shigeo Matsuda, Yoshinaga Yoshimura, Takehiro Ami and Isao Saito


We describe a highly efficient method for reversible photocircularization of oligonucleotide (ODN) on a double-stranded DNA template: 5-carboxyvinyl-2-deoxyuridine-containing ODN was reversibly circularized around the target sequence of the double-stranded plasmid DNA resulting in formation of a catenated plasmid.
