Hypoxic X-radiolysis of diluted aqueous solutions was performed to generate hydrated electrons that induced one-electron reduction of oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) possessing a disulfide bond. Upon hypoxic irradiation, reductive ligation reaction between two types of ODNs occurred in the presence of a template ODN strand, resulting in the formation of a prescribed ODN in substantial amounts.
