Abstract
We designed primers with a tail sequence that forms a six-nucleotide hairpin at temperature <55oC, but not ≥55oC. These primers contain six phosphorothioate bonds starting at the complementary region to inhibit exonuclease T7 activity. The primers successfully amplified the target and, following incubation with a mixture of T7 exonuclease, DNA polymerase, and Taq DNA ligase, pseudo-circular double-stranded DNA formed.
