Protocol for Ligation of Insert DNA into Plasmid Vector DNA

Materials:

Materials:

  • DNA sample(s) in water or TE buffer
  • 10x ligation buffer
  • T4 DNA Ligase, 5 u/μl
  • ddwater


Procedure:

1. Test the concentration of the DNA sample(s).

2. Pipet the following into a microfuge tube:

a. Linearized vector DNA: around 100ng

b. Insert DNA (at 3:1 molar excess over vector): variable

c. 10x ligation buffer: 1uL

d. T4 DNA Ligase: 1uL

e. ddwater: Rest of volume

Total volume: 10 uL

3. Vortex and spin briefly to collect drops.

4. Incubate the mixture at 16 degree for 45-60min.

5. Use the ligation mixture for transformation.


Tips:

  • Thoroughly mix the 10x ligation buffer before use.
  • The optima l insert/vector molar ratio is 3:1.
  • To minimize recircularization of the cloning vector, dephosphorylate linearized plasmid DNA with Alkaline Phospha tase(CIAP) prior to ligation. Heats inactivate the phosphatase or remove from the mixture after the dephosphorylation step.
  • DNA purity is an important factor for successful ligation. Plasmids should be purified using a method that will ensure isolation of high quality DNA. Use only high quality agarose and fresh electrophoresis buffers for gel-purification of DNA fragments.
