Abstract

As noted above, certain aspects of this disclosure relate to a library of nucleic acid vectors, as well as a method for making the same. In certain embodiments, the library of nucleic acid vectors comprises: a plurality of nucleic acid molecules of the following formula: S1—R—S2 wherein, in each nucleic acid of the plurality: S1 and S2 are each at least 15 nucleotides in length; S1 and S2 are complementary to each other along their entire length; either S1 or S2 is complementary along its entire length to a sequence in eukaryotic mRNA; and R is a six base recognition site for a restriction endonuclease; and wherein S1 and S2 vary in nucleotide sequence between different members of the plurality. A method for amplifying a circular nucleic acid is also provided.
