Methods and products are provided for the oligonucleotide-mediated polymcrase-dependent mutation of template nucleic acid sequences in a programmed sequence over multiple rounds of nuc[eic acid synthesis. The methods employ series of mutagenic primers, all of which may be present in the initial reaction system , m w'hich at least some of The mutagenic primers do not bind to or promote polylnerizatiun from the original template nucleic acids, but do bind to and promote polymerization from the mutagenized products of earlier rounds of the program of sequential mutagenesis [...) > Enhancement of gene expression (CR Drake et a/, RU) Zeneca Ltd and the inventors N° WO 97/46690.
