Redesigning the DNA ligand

It turns out that NotI requires 10bp on each side of the restriction site for succesful digests. We need to redesign the old DNA ligand.

Other possible restriction enzymes (using NEB cleavage experiments to determine minimum number of bp needed on each side):

  • AflIII (ACATGT)
    • sequence not present in p7308
    • >90% yield after 2 hr digest with 2 bp on each side
  • AscIII (GGCGCGCC)
    • sequence not present in p7308
    • >90% yield after 2 hr digest with 0 bp on each side
  • StuI (AGGCCT)
    • sequence not present in p7308
    • >90% yield after 2 hr digest with 1 bp on each side
