Abstract
A composition and its uses and additionally a kit are provided. The composition is a synthetic self-complementary oligonucleotide that has a double-stranded region and a loop, wherein the double-stranded region contains a binding sequence for PaqCI. Additionally, the oligonucleotide includes unligatable 3' and 5′ ends that cannot be cleaved by PaqCI. This oligonucleotide composition has been combined with PaqCI or a variant of PaqCI Type IIS restriction endonuclease in a reaction mixture, where the reaction mixture includes PaqCI or variant that can further be combined with a ligase and optionally a deadenylase, crowding molecule such as PEG and/or a repair enzyme such as Endo MS. The kit includes the oligonucleotide and Type IIS restriction endonuclease in the same or different containers.
