Gibson Assembly
Gibson Assembly is an isothermal, single-reaction method for assembling multiple overlapping DNA molecules. The method was developed by Daniel G. Gibson at the J. Craig Venter Institute in 2009.
The assembly system employs 5´-T5 exonuclease, Phusion DNA polymerase, and Taq lig. Gibson can be used to assemble both ssDNA and dsDNA fragments. This methode makes it possible to join DNA molecules there are as large as 583kb and clone joined products in ''E. coli'' with a length up to 300kb. Among the advantages is that it takes the same amount of time to ligate n DNA fragments than two.
The way it's done
The isothermal One-step The 5´-T5 exonuclease removes the bases from the 5'-end of double strained DNA molecule, leaving a recess in the DNA. The ssDNA overhang is used to assemble the DNA fragments. The T5 exonuclease are inactivated during the incubation at 50ºC. Phusion polymerase and Taq ligase fills the gaps of the annealed complementary ssDNA overhangs and seals the nicks in the end, leaving a joined DNA molecules.
Gateway assembly
MultiSite Gateway Assembly enables the assembly of multiple DNA fragments by utilizing site-specific recombination, and are provided by Invitrogen.Recombination is a efficient and quick way to assemble biobricks and are widely used. Invitrogen have designed standalized and simplified the technique in their Gateway Cloning. Gateway Assembly uses two different bacteriophage recombination enzymes to assemble tje destination vector with the Entry clones. The process is extremely robust and furthermore overcome the steps by traditional restriction cloning.
The way it's done
The Gateway Assambly can clone up to 4 DNA fragments into one vector with by flanking the PCR products with specific att sites, and further directed recombination into the vector. The idea with Gateway assembly is that it is executed in the same way whether you join two or four DNA fragments. Depending on the number of fragments specific att sites are attached, always starting with attB1 and ending with attB2. The att sites only differ in a few bases.
First PCR fragments with the appropriate att sites and orientation has to be constructed as shown in figure ??
and then assembled with a Entry Clone, containing the respective att sites. The Entry Clones are mixed together with the appropriate destination vector by a LR clonase reaction. The resulting expression clone is then ready for tranformation and functional assays.
In fusion
In-fusion BioBrick assembly are a methode for assembling of two or many Biobricks, provided by Clontech. The assembly system can be semi-standarlized by simple primer design rules, minimizing the time used on planning the assembly reactions.
The way it's done
The PCR fragments are assembled with the use of at least 15pb homology on both ends. The forward primer on the first PCR fragments must have homologes to the reverse primer of the second PCR fragment and so forth on every part of the BioBricks. Afterwards the PCR fragments can be fused into a pre-engineered vector by creation of single-stranded regions made by the In-fusion enzyme. The reaction is fast an efficient.
