Gibson Assembly
Theory
Gibson Assembly as a scar free method of DNA recombination that is highly efficient and readily copes with combination of multiple DNA fragments at once.
Practice
Master Mix for Gibson Assembly
Reagent | Volume/µl |
---|---|
Taq ligase (40u/µl) | 50 |
5x isothermal buffer | 100 |
T5 exonuclease (1u/µl) | 2 |
Phusion polymerase (2u/µl) | 6.25 |
Nuclease-free water | 216.75 |
Total | 375 |
Master Mix is 1.33x concentrated
DNA and Gibson Master Mix should be combined with a volumetric ration of 1:3 in a PCR tube. The total volume can be 20-50µl.
Set thermocycler containing the PCR tubes to 50 degrees C for 1 hour.
