Biotechnological production of ssDNA with DNA-hydrolyzing deoxyribozymes.

Preparation of long single-stranded (ss)DNA in large quantities with high efficiency and purity remains a synthetic challenge. Here, we present a protocol for using DNA-hydrolyzing DNA enzymes (deoxyribozymes) for efficient biotechnological production of milligrams of ssDNA with a customizable sequence up to a few kilobases. Our protocol provides a convenient yet economical way to store the sequence information of target ssDNA on phages for selective mass production on demand. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Jia et al. (2021).
