This study provides a rapid, simple, high-throughput method to discover novel archaeal nucleic acid modifying enzymes by utilizing a fosmid genomic library, next-generation sequencing, and capillary electrophoresis. The method described here provides the details necessary to create 384-well fosmid library plates fromThermococcus kodakarensis genomic DNA, sequences of 384-well fosmids plates using Illumina next-generation sequencing, and performed high-throughput functional read-out assays using capillary electrophoresis to identify a variety of nucleic acid modifying activities, including DNA cleavage and ligation.
