Ligation
Classical cloning as well as Gibson Assembly require the action of ligases to covalently assemble DNA fragments. Before ligation, those fragments anneal to each other due to complementary overhangs.
Amount | Ingredient |
---|---|
50 ng | Backbone |
3 fold molar amount | Insert |
2 µl | 10X T4-Ligase Buffer |
1 µl | T4-Ligase |
ad 20 µl | dH2O |
Incubate for 30 min at RT
Calculating the amount of insert
required Volume of Insert = 3 x Volume(Bb) x length(In) x concentration(Bb) / [ length(Bb) x concentration(In) ]
In short: V(In) = 3 x V(Bb) x l(In) x c(Bb) / [ l(Bb) x c(In) ]
