Abstract
The present invention features a method for introducing hypermutations into a target DNA or RNA sequence of interest, characterized in that said method comprises the steps of: PA1 (a) transcribing a RNA into DNA in a reaction mixture comprising a reverse transcriptase, varying biased concentrations of deoxynucleoside triphosphates to produce hypermutations and an oligonucleotide primer that is partially complementary to the 3' end of said RNA; and PA1 (b) recovering said DNA sequences.
