In this report, we describe a simple, rapid, efficient and inexpensive strategy for sequencing inserted DNAs from clones of cDNA or gDNA libraries. This strategy uses PCR products directly amplified from transformed bacterial colonies, with universal primers within the vector. The method can be applied for sequencing cDNA or gDNA libraries with up to 4 ~ 5 kb insert sizes, without overnight liquid culture or plasmid DNA preparation steps. We successfully used this method to analyze clones from full-length, enriched cDNA libraries. Although simple, following this strategy will significantly help researchers to avoid unnecessary steps in the analysis of a cDNA library.
