Abstract

A method of producing plasmids with heteroduplex DNA sequences, in which probe plasmids containing DNA inserts that correspond to probe sequences and test plasmids containing DNA inserts that correspond to a population of test sequences are first constructed. The vector portions of the plasmids used in these constructions have similar sequences. When test and probe plasmids are cleaved with appropriate restriction enzymes and then denatured to separate strands, complementary regions of the linear strands which correspond to vector sequences can anneal. The molecules that harbor test and probe inserts that are related by sequence complementarity form non-covalently closed circular molecules. These molecules can replicate after transformation into an appropriate host organism. There is a replication bias against plasmids which anneal through vector sequences, but which do not contain homologous probe and test inserts.
