Abstract

A library of oligonucleotides is described comprising a plurality of different oligonucleotides each in separate containers. The oligonucleotides are typically of the same length of from about 5 to 10 nucleotides in length, and each oligonucleotide in the library has the same nucleotide sequence of from 1 to 3 nucleotides in length at the 5' terminus of all the oligonucleotides in the library. In addition methods are described for using the oligonucleotide library for producing oligonucleotides of preselected nucleotide sequence for use in DNA sequencing and primer extension reactions.
