Abstract
In a method for generating a long nucleic acid molecule, nucleic acids immobilized on a surface and having overlapping complementary sequences is released into solution. The overlapping complementary sequences are hybridized to form hybridized nucleic acids, followed by extension or ligation of the hybridized nucleic acids to synthesize the long nucleic acid molecule. The nucleic acids may comprise first and second series of nucleic acids having redundant overlapping sequences, wherein nucleic acids from the first and second series are complementary to each other. The complementary nucleic acids are hybridized to form the hybridized nucleic acids. The generated long nucleic acid molecule may have a predetermined sequence element, and it may be introduced into a system wherein the predetermined sequence element is required for replication, such that replication of the synthesized long nucleic acid molecule is indicative of the presence of the predetermined sequence element in the long nucleic acid molecule.
