We have developed a solid-phase, high throughput (10,000 clones/day) screen for dioxygenase activity. The cis-di- hydrodiol product of dioxygenase bioconversion is converted to a phenol by acidification or to a catechol by reaction with cis-dihydrodiol dehydrogenase. Gibbs reagent reacts quickly with these oxygenated aromatics to yield colored products that are quantifiable using a microplate reader or by digital imaging and image analysis. The method is reproducible and quantitative at product concentrations of only 30,uM, with essentially no background from media components. This method is an effective general screen for aromatic oxidation and should be a useful tool for the discovery and directed evolution of oxygenases.

An optimized automated synthesizer is presented for assembling oligonucleotides, thiooligonucleotides and 5′-modified oligonucleotides including: chemical phosphorylation, multihydroxyl derivatization with a non-nucleosidic phosphoramidite. The incorporation of biotin, fluorescein and rhodamine phosphoramidites is described. The purification and structure determination of oligo-nucleotides was confirmed using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), capillary electrophoresis (CE) and laser desorption mass spectrometry (LDMS). Several applications and confirming data will be presented for gene synthesis and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) experiments.

The use of pre-formed trinucleotides, representing codons of the 20 canonical amino acids, for oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis offers the advantage of controlled randomization and generation of “smart libraries”. We here present a method for the preparation of fully protected trinucleotides on solid phase. The key issue of our strategy is the linkage of the starting nucleoside to the solid support via a traceless disulfide linker. Upon trinucleotide assembly, the disulfide bridge is cleaved under reducing conditions, and the fully protected trinucleotide is released with a terminal 3′-OH group.
