Abstract

Methods of writing data to a DNA strand by inserting data-encoding oligos or symbols into a DNA backbone. One particular method of synthesizing a DNA strand encoding data includes cleaving a DNA backbone into multiple segments, and pasting a plurality of data-encoding oligo symbols between the multiple segments, with the terminal ends of the segments joining homologous terminal ends of the symbols, resulting in the DNA strand encoding data comprising alternating segments and symbols.
