  • ---Karmella 21:34, 15 November 2012 (EST): Next step - ligation & transformation

Refer to this page for a full description: http://openwetware.org/wiki/Haynes:Assembly101

  • Use 20 ng of vector for each ligation = 5 μL pSB1A3
  • Use 2x moles of H2B insert compared to vector: xμL H2B insert = 2 * 410 bp H2B / 2000 bp pSB1A3 * 20 ng pSB1A3 / 6.384 ng/μL H2B = 1.28 μL
  • Use 2x moles of LOV insert compared to vector: xμL LOV insert = 2 * 461 bp LOV / 2000 bp pSB1A3 * 20 ng pSB1A3 / 11.492 ng/μL LOV = 0.8 μL
  H2B LOV Negative Control
Insert DNA (X ng) 1.0 μL 1.0 0
Vector DNA (50 ng) 5.0 5.0 5.0
2x Roche Rapid Ligation buffer 6.0 μl 6.0 6.0
New England Biolabs T4 ligase 1.0 1.0 1.0
dH2O ___ μL ___ μL + Insert μL
TOTAL 12.0 12.0 12.0
Mix the reaction(s) thoroughly by flicking the tube.
Incubate at room temperature for 10 minutes.
