Ligation
Procedures
Set up the ligation mix according:
Reagents | 1:3(μl) | 1:5(μl) | Vector(μl) |
---|---|---|---|
Vector | 1 | 1 | 1 |
Insert | 3 | 5 | N/A |
10X BUFFER | 1 | 1 | 1 |
T4 Ligase | 1 | 1 | 1 |
H2O | 4 | 2 | 7 |
Total Volume | 10.0 | 10.0 | 10.0 |
For sticky end ligations incubate on the bench of 3-4 hrs or overnight
Notes
- For standard ligation 100-200ng of vector DNA is required - can be checked using nanodrop
- A ligation calcultion can be used however a 1:3 and a 1:5 ratio tends to be used instead.
