Phosphorylation and Ligation
- Phosphorylate, ligate and transform immediately after each other
- Modified Phosphorylation Procedure:
- 150 ng DNA
- 3 uL T4 ligase buffer
- 1 uL T4 PNK
- Water to 30 uL
- Run at 37°C for 1 hour
- Ligation: (into storage vectors-pSB1K3)
- 20 uL reaction volume:
- 50 ng backbone (linearized pSB1K3 at 25 ng/uL from iGEM)
- *Use NEBioCalculator, 3:1 insert:backbone molar ratio
- 2 uL T4 ligase buffer
- 1 uL T4 ligase
- Water to 20 uL
- Run for 15 minutes (max 30) at room temperature
- Heat to inactivate at 80°C for 20 minutes or transform immediately
