The present invention is a method for preparing a DNA fragment, which is for microbial cell transformation and has at least one insert DNA unit that includes a DNA containing an effective replication origin in a host microorganism and an insert DNA in which unit DNAs are linked, the method being characterized by including: (A) a step for preparing, through an OGAB method, a plurality of types of plasmids having an insert DNA unit in which a plurality of types of unit DNAs capable of being linked in a specific linking order are linked; (B) a step for decomposing a plasmid into unit DNAs by treating the plurality of types of plasmids prepared in the step (A) with a restriction enzyme suitable for each plasmid and preparing a mixed liquid of a plurality of types of unit DNAs; and (C) a step for preparing a long-chain DNA fragment by re-assembling the unit DNAs through the OGAB method by using the mixed liquid of a plurality of types of unit DNAs obtained in the step (B).

The present invention discloses a ω-transaminase mutant obtained through DNA synthetic shuffling combined mutation. The ω-transaminase mutant is obtained through point mutation of a wild type ω-transaminase from Aspergillus terrus. The amino acid sequence of the wild type ω-transaminase is shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. The mutation site of the ω-transaminase mutant is any one of: (1) F115L-H210N-M150C-M280C; (2) F115L-H210N; (3) F115L-H210N-E253A-I295V; (4) I77L-F115L-E133A-H210N-N245D; (5) I77L-Q97E-F115L-L118T-E253A-G292D; (6) I77L-E133A-N245D-G292D; and (7) H210N-N245D-E253A-G292D. According to the present invention, forward mutations obtained in the previous stage are randomly combined through a DNA synthetic shuffling combined mutation method. It is verified through experiments that this method can effectively improve the probability of forward mutation and increase experimental efficiency and feasibility, and is capable of obtaining mutant enzymes with thermodynamic stability remarkably superior to that of wild enzymes via screening.

A method for synthesizing a target double stranded (ds) polynucleotide by providing an oligonucleotide library within an array device that has a diversity of oligonucleotide library members, each of which has a different nucleotide sequence and is contained in a separate library containment in an aqueous solution. The library includes single stranded oligonucleotides and double stranded oligonucleotides with at least one overhang and covers at least 10,000 pairs of matching oligonucleotides. In a first step, transferring at least a first pair of matching oligonucleotides transferred from the library into a first reaction containment using a liquid handler and the matching oligonucleotides are assembled, thereby obtaining a first reaction product comprising at least one overhang. Further reaction products are then likewise obtained and are assembled in a predetermined workflow using an algorithm, thereby producing said target ds polynucleotide with an overhang, optionally followed by a finalization step to prepare blunt ends.

A library of double stranded (ds) polynucleotide library members of at least 12 bp length comprising a variety of polynucleotide core sequences and the same overhangs.

It is a first object of the present invention to provide a method for preparing a Tile vector, being a vector, which comprises a selectable marker and a coding polynucleotide, wherein said coding polynucleotide is immediately preceded and followed by a type IIs recognition sequence, wherein said preceding and following recognition sequences are recognized by a same type IIs restriction enzyme, but have an opposite orientation. More particularly, the position and orientation of said preceding and following type IIs recognition sequences provides for the cleavage of said Tile vector by a corresponding type IIs restriction enzyme resulting in the release of said coding polynucleotide sequence having at its respective ends overhang sequences with a known orientation and length, while lacking said preceding and following type IIs recognition sequences. In a second object the present invention provides a method for using such Tile vectors obtained as previously described for joining two or more coding polynucleotides to form a product polynucleotide. Typically, said product polynucleotide is integrated in a vector.
