Abstract
The invention provides a system and method for synthesizing polynucleotides by solid phase assembly oligonucleotide precursors, in accordance with the method, a polynucleotide is partitioned into an ordered set of subunits, wherein each subunit is assembled in a single reaction from a subset of oligonucleotide precursors that uniquely anneal together to produce the subunit. The subunits are then assembled to form the desired polynucleotide. An important feature of the invention is the selection of subunits that are free of undesired sequence elements, such as palindromes, repetitive sequences, and the like, which would result in more than one subunit product alter ligating a pool of oligonucleotide precursors.
