15. Gel-purified DNA products were extended by 4-6 C residues by incubating with dCTP and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (Promega). PCR amplification and subsequent digestion with EcoR1 (New England Biolabs) allowed individual sequences to be concatenated into multimers with T4 DNA ligase (New England Biolabs). Oligonucleotides were cloned into a TOPO vector (Invitrogen) and sequenced (MGH Molecular Biology Core Facility).
