一、In a microcentrifuge tube prepare a solution of linear DNA (25-50ng) in deionized water or TE buffer (10-35µl).

二、Add:

(一)10X ligation buffer 5µl,

(二)50% PEG 4000 solution (for blunt ends only) 5µl,

(三)deionized water to 50µl,

(四)T4 5u.

Vortex the tube and spin down in a microcentrifuge for 3-5 seconds. DNA Ligase

三、Incubate the mixture for 1 hour at 22°C .

四、Inactivate T4 DNA Ligase by heating reaction mixture at 65°C for 10 minutes.

五、Resulting reaction mixture can be used directly for transformation.
