Oligonucleotide subsets selection by single nucleotide resolution barcode identification.

Effective subset selection from complex oligonucleotide libraries is crucial for genomics, synthetic biology, and DNA data storage. The polymerase chain reaction, foundational for amplifying target subsets is limited by primer design and length for specificity, which constrains the scalability of oligo libraries and increases the synthesis burden for primers. We introduce an oligo subset selection methodology that utilizes sequence-specific cyclic nucleotide synthesis and blocking of the template oligos.
