Nonenzymatic DNA ligation chemistries containing a reversible step allow thermodynamic control of product formation, but they are not necessarily compatible with polymerase enzymes. We report a ligation system that uses commercially available reagents, includes a reversible step, and results in a linkage that can function as a template for PCR amplification with accurate sequence transfer.
