1. A method for generating an oligonucleotide having a predefined sequence, the method comprising:
- a. designing at least one plurality of oligonucleotides, each oligonucleotide of each plurality of oligonucleotides having a different length and each oligonucleotide having an identical predefined internal sequence, a 3′
flanking sequence at the 3′
end of the internal sequence and a 5′
flanking sequence at the 5′
end of the internal sequence,wherein the 3′
flanking sequence comprises a primer recognition site and a restriction enzyme recognition site;
wherein the 5′
flanking sequence comprises a primer recognition site, a restriction enzyme recognition site and a padding nucleotide sequence, wherein each oligonucleotide of each plurality of oligonucleotides comprises a padding nucleotide sequence of a different length;
b. synthesizing the at least one plurality of oligonucleotides on a solid support; and
c. isolating the oligonucleotide having the predefined sequence.

16. A composition for the assembly of a target nucleic acid having a predefined sequence comprising:
-
a. a first plurality of oligonucleotides comprising a first internal sequence identical to the 5′
end of the target nucleic acid;b. a second plurality of oligonucleotides comprising a second internal sequence identical to the 3′
end of the target nucleic acid; andc. optionally one or more pluralities of oligonucleotides each comprising an internal sequence identical to a different portion of the sequence of the target nucleic acid, wherein each oligonucleotide of each plurality of oligonucleotides has a sequence region overlapping with a sequence region in each oligonucleotide of another plurality of oligonucleotides, wherein each internal sequence of the one or more pluralities of oligonucleotides together with the first and second internal sequences comprise the target nucleic acid; wherein each oligonucleotide has 5′ and
3′
flanking sequences at the 5′
end and the 3′
end of each internal sequence, each of the flanking sequences comprising a primer recognition site and a restriction enzyme recognition site; andwherein each 5′
flanking sequence further comprises a padding nucleotide sequence that has a different length than other padding sequences within each plurality of oligonucleotides. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
