Abstract
The present invention provides oligonucleotide constructs, sets of such oligonucleotide constructs, and methods of using such oligonucleotide constructs to provide validated sequences or sets of validated sequences corresponding to desired ROIs. Such validated ROIs and constructs containing these have a wide variety of uses, including in synthetic biology, quantitative nucleic acid analysis, polymorphism and/or mutation screening, and the like.

11. A method for determining the sequence of nucleic acids from a sample, comprising:
-
providing nucleic acids from the sample; associating the individual nucleic acids with an oligonucleotide comprising a unique identifier and one or more amplification sites to create a set of tagged constructs; amplifying the tagged constructs so that the amplified set comprises at least two copies of each tagged construct comprising a unique identifier; and determining the sequence of at least two amplified constructs comprising the same unique identifier. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method for identifying nucleic acids having a desired sequence, comprising:
-
providing a master set of oligonucleotide constructs comprising an ROI, at least one unique identifier, and at least one amplification site; amplifying all or a portion of the master set; and identifying constructs having ROIs with the desired sequence by sequencing at least two constructs from the amplified set that comprise the same unique identifier; wherein the constructs having ROIs with the desired sequence can be identified from other constructs containing substantially the same ROI by their unique identifier. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21)
