Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The invention provides improved methods for synthesizing polynucleotides, such as DNA and RNA, using enzymes and specially designed nucleotide analogs. Using the methods of the invention, specific sequences of polynucleotides can be synthesized de novo, base by base, in an aqueous environment, without the use of a nucleic acid template. Because the nucleotide analogs have an unmodified 3′ OH, i.e., as found in "natural" deoxyribose and ribose molecules, the analogs result in natural polynucleotides suitable for incorporation into biological systems.
