As #oligonucleotides continue to increase in complexity, efficient methods for assembling longer, functional constructs are more important than ever. In our latest application note, we explore how CuAAC click chemistry and triazole linkages are enabling researchers to ligate shorter oligonucleotide fragments into longer sequences while maintaining biological compatibility. We also highlight emerging applications—including ClickSeq, synthetic biology, and chemically defined nucleic acid architectures—and discuss practical considerations for implementing this approach.

What special phosphoramidites are required for phosphorothioate synthesis? The answer is none. The standard method of introducing phosphorothioates is to use standard phosphoramidites and sulfurization reagent in place of standard iodine oxidation. Sulfurization requires a contact time of at least one minute on the synthesizer. Sulfurization also needs to occur before capping, in the opposite order when compared to standard iodine oxidation. This is to prevent trace amounts of peroxides in capping reagents from performing undesired oxidation.

Efficient synthesis of long #oligonucleotides can be challenging with traditional solid-phase methods, especially as chain length increases. One promising alternative is click ligation via CuAAC, which enables the assembly of shorter fragments into longer, chemically stable constructs using a triazole linkage. This approach offers several advantages, including mild reaction conditions, high selectivity, and strong compatibility with downstream applications such as PCR, in vitro transcription, and sequencing workflows.
