Genome DNA sequencing has become an affordable commodity to resolve the genetic background of life. However, the biologic functions of DNA encoded sequences are still relatively unknown. A highly scalable and cost-effective cloning method for selecting natural DNA targets from genomic templates is, therefore, of urgent need to rapidly understand biological products of genomes. LASSO probes are long ssDNA oligonucleotides that are designed with a universal adapter that is linked between two sequences that are complementary to a genomic target of interest. Through a pooled assembly method, LASSOs can be made for multiplex DNA capture. Herein, we describe a robust and efficient method for the assembly of LASSO probes libraries using a Cre-recombinase-mediated reaction as well as a protocol for multiplex genome target capture. The starting components are a pre-LASSO probe library that are short DNA oligo pools designed in silico and an E. coli plasmid (pLASSO) that incorporates the pre-LASSO library. Through internal recombination of pLASSO with its inserts, a mature LASSO library in final configuration can be made with high purity. Assembly of a LASSO probe library takes four days and target capture can be performed in a single day. With an exponentially growing list of new genomes, this method can enable the rapid production of ORFeome libraries for high-throughput screening to identify biological functions as a complimentary approach to understand genome functional biology.
