Ligation Procedure
Element | Volume |
---|---|
Upstream Digestion part | 2 µL |
Downstream Digestion part | 2 µL |
Destination Plasmid | 1 µL |
10X T4 DNA ligase buffer | 2 µL |
T4 DNA ligase | 1 µL |
H2O | 12 µL |
A reaction mixture was prepared containing, Element Volume Upstream Digestion part 2 µL Downstream Digestion part 2 µL Destination Plasmid 1 µL 10X T4 DNA ligase buffer 2 µL T4 DNA ligase 1 µL H2O 12 µL
We incubated each ligation mix at 30°C for 30 minutes, followed by heat inactivation at 80°C for 20 minutes.
4 µL of the ligation product was transformed into 100 µL of competent E. coli, the transformants were then incubated for one hour.
