Hint

Try different molar ratios of vector to plasmid to increase ligation effficiency

The sticky ends of both the digested insert and vector DNA must be comptabile

Materials

  • ultra-pure water
  • purified digested insert DNA
  • purified digested vector DNA
  • 10X T4 DNA ligase buffer
  • T4 DNA ligase
  • How to calculate the Insert Amount, if, for example, a 6:1 molar ratio is decided upon
  • Procedure

    • Into a 1.5mL add the following:
    • 2.0µL 10X T4 DNA Ligase Buffer
    • volume of insert that corresponds to the determined molar ratio
    • volume of vector that corresponds to the determined molar ratio
    • 0.5µL T4 DNA Ligase
    • Adjust final volume to 20µL with ultra pure water
    • Vortex and pulse spin down
    • Incubate at room temperature for 1 hour
