By Donald Zuhn, Kevin Noonan, Chris Singer, Sherri Oslick, and Jason Derry

By James DeGiulio -- On April 13, 2010, Sloning Biotechnology announced the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 7,695,906, which covers an optimized method of Slonomics, the company's platform technology. Slonomics uses a set of double stranded DNA triplets as universal building blocks for the synthesis of combinatorial libraries. This triplet library contains all possible sequence combinations necessary to build any desired DNA molecule. In the first phase of Slonomics (see below; click on image to enlarge), the triplet building blocks are sequentially ligated in a series of cycles referred to as elongation. The output of this elongation phase is a...
