Methods for rapid cloning for full length cDNAs using a pooling strategy

摘要

The present invention provides a method for high throughput cloning of full length cDNA sequences using a pooling strategy. This method uses a plurality of clone arrays prepared from cDNA libraries which have been preferably enriched for 5 ′ mRNA sequences and size fractionated into several discrete ranges (sub-libraries). These arrays are used to rapidly identify the full length cDNA sequence for a DNA segment of interest.
