- Objectives
- To anneal primers containing the Avi-Tag and use as inserts in ligation reactions
- To set up various ligation constructs
- Phosphorylation of Primers
- 5μL 10x T4 DNA Ligase Buffer
- 3μL Primer
- 1μL T4 Polynucleotide Kinase
- 41μL H2O
- 50μL Total
- Incubate at 37°C for 30 minutes
- Heat Inactivation of Polynucleotide Kinase
- Incubate at 65°C for 20 minutes
- Primer Annealing
- Incubate forward and reverse primer in a 1:1 ratio at 95°C for 3 minutes
- Let cool to room temperature for ~10 minutes
- Can also use "Anneal" program on thermocycler

- 0.8μL Primer Pair A
- 0.8μL Primer Pair B
- 1.0μL T4 DNA Ligase
- 20μL Total
- GFP + Avi-Tag + Backbone
- 9.4μL H2O
- 3.6μL pZE12 vector backbone (cut with KpnI and ClaI)
- 2.4μL GFP

- GFP + Backbone
- 13μL pZE12 vector backbone (cut with KpnI and SphI)
- 2.4μL GFP
- 2.0μL T4 DNA Ligase Buffer
- 1.6μL H2O
- 1.0μL T4 DNA Ligase
- 20μL Total
- Avi-Tag + Backbone
- 7.8μL pZE12 vector backbone (cut with SphI and ClaI)
- 7.6μL H2O
- 2.0μL T4 DNA Ligase Buffer
- 0.8μL Primer Pair A
- 0.8μL Primer Pair B

- In all above reactions, volume of plasmid vector added corresponds with 100ng backbone.
- Prepare control ligation reactions (no inserts) for each of the above constructs.
- Same volume of vector backbone, buffer, ligase
- Volumes of all inserts (i.e. gene or primer pairs) go toward volume of H2O
- After ligation setup, incubate in 16°C waterbath overnight.
