1

The starting DNA template containing the sequence of interest and bacterial backbone is denatured.

2

Φ29 DNA Polymerase and primers initiates amplification, producing long, linear, double stranded concatemers.

3

Protelomerase binds the linear DNA at specified sites and performs a cleavage-joining reaction to produce dbDNA™.

4

The mixture is partially purified to remove low molecular weight impurities and enzymes.

5

Targeted restriction enzymes are added to selectively cut and digest the bacterial backbone DNA sequences.

6

Exonucleases, to which dbDNA™ is resistant, remove the open fragments of backbone DNA sequences, producing dNMPs.

7

The mixture is purified to remove the dNMPs and processing enzymes.

8

The dbDNA™ is finally formulated, filtered, dispensed under laminar air flow, and quality checked prior to release.
