摘要
Locked nucleic acid (LNA) modifications help to improve nucleic acid recognition in molecular biology applications. We report that LNA-substituted primers in PCR reactions may cause considerable cloning bias when the widely used topoisomerase-based ligation is used for cloning of multitemplate PCR products.
