Simple Diaminonucleoside-Mediated Nonenzymatic Ligation of Oligonucleotides
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Oligonucleotide-templated chemical ligation is a powerful and robust technique to covalently join two or more oligonucleotides. Chemical handles, such as amino-modifiers, can be incorporated to enhance ligation efficiency. However, their incorporation is typically laborious, expensive, and time-consuming. Utilizing 3',5'-diamino-3',5'-dideoxythymidine (or 3',5'-diamino-2',3',5'-trideoxy-5-methylcytidine) and a water-soluble condensing reagent, we demonstrate a simple and cost-effective methodology for chemically ligating two oligonucleotides containing opposing monophosphate groups in a template-directed manner. Through reaction optimization, product formation reached >85% within 4 h in DNA, RNA-like, and certain chimeric-based systems. Our methodology will find applications in chemical biology and biotechnology.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
