Abstract
Methods of providing shuffling libraries that include codon-varied oligonucleotide sequences are described. Codon-varied oligonucleotides are synthesized using trinucleotide or mononucleotide phosphoramidite sequences, and are derived from homologous or non-homologous nucleic acid sequences, or combinations of such sequences. Various methods of recombining codon-varied oligonucleotide sequences to expedite artificial evolution are also described. The present invention additionally relates to various integrated systems that are optionally used to automate these recombination methods.
