Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for the generation of highly accurate oligonucleic acid libraries encoding for predetermined variants of a nucleic acid sequence. The degree of variation may be complete, resulting in a saturated variant library, or less than complete, resulting in a selective library of variants. The variant oligonucleic acid libraries described herein may designed for further processing by transcription or translation. The variant oligonucleic acid libraries described herein may be designed to generate variant RNA, DNA and/or protein populations. Further provided herein are method for identifying variant species with increased or decreased activities, with applications in regulating biological functions and the design of therapeutics for treatment or reduction of disease.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods, systems, and compositions for seamless nucleic acid assembly. Such methods, systems, and compositions for seamless nucleic acid assembly include those for in vitro recombination cloning, single-stranded hierarchal DNA assembly, or overlap extension PCR without primer removal.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods and compositions for evaluating emulsion uniformity. In an exemplary embodiment, the disclosure provides a method for evaluating a quality characteristic of a droplet. The method includes the steps of: encapsulating a plurality of polynucleotides in a droplet, wherein the plurality of polynucleotides comprises at least one species of oligonucleotide; tagging the polynucleotides with a label that identifies the polynucleotides as arising from the droplet; counting a number of species of oligonucleotide tagged with the label; and determining a quality characteristic of the droplet based on the number of species of oligonucleotide tagged with the label. The oligonucleotide may include a first nucleic acid segment and a second nucleic acid segment, wherein the first nucleic acid segment comprises a plurality of random nucleotides; and the second nucleic acid segment comprises a conserved region common to the plurality of oligonucleotides.
