I Outline :

I The principle

I Our design

2/14

The principle

I Step 1 : Build the geometric model by reconstructing the

desired shape with rectangles.

I Step 2 : Add one crossover every k = 16 bases.

3/14

The principle

I Step 3 : Design the scaffold strain and add its corresponding

crossovers.

4/14

The principle

I Step 4 : Design the other portions of strains, the staples,

taking into account the crossovers.

5/14

The principle

I Step 5 : Merge adjacent staples when possible.

I Step 6 : Sequence the scaffold, create the staples as its

complements.
