Abstract

We describe two DNA-templated ligation strategies: native chemical ligation (NCL), and thiol-disulfide exchange. Both systems result in successful ligation in the presence of a DNA template. The stability of the product from the NCL reaction relies on exogenous thiol, while the thiol-disulfide reaction proceeds in a catalyst-free manner.
