Figure 1: Ligation of sticky or blunt-ended fragments with Bioline Quick Stick Ligase. Lambda DNA was 10x over-digested with EcoR V, or Hind III, followed by heat inactivation. DNA fragments were ligated using the Bioline protocol for 5 minutes at room temperature.
 
Description

Quick-Stick Ligase is a T4 DNA ligase, which has been mutated to dramatically improve enzyme activity, delivering fast, efficient ligation at room temperature. The enzyme enables the rapid ligation of two strands of DNA between the 5’- phosphate and the 3’- hydroxyl groups of adjacent nucleotides in either a blunt-ended or cohesive-ended configuration. Within 5 minutes, Quick Stick Ligase will provide nearly 100% ligation of cohesive-ended fragments of 100ng of Hind III- cut lambda DNA, or 80% ligation of blunt-ended fragments for the same amount of EcoRV-cut lambda DNA. 100% ligation of blunt-ended fragments can be achieved by increasing ligation time to 15 minutes at room temperature.
 
Applications

• Cloning of DNA from most sources, including PCR fragments, plasmids, cosmids, genomic, phage and viral DNA.
• Linker ligation.
• Re-ligation of linearised plasmids.
• Ligation of double-stranded oligonucleotides into vectors (plasmid and phage).
 
Storage Conditions

The product can be stored for 6 months at -20ΊC in a constant-temperature freezer.

Features

• Catalyses the joining of two strands of DNA between the 5’- phosphate and 3’-hydroxyl groups of adjacent nucleotides.
• Exhibits high activity.
 
Description

• High Activity.T4 DNA Ligase catalyses the formation of phosphodiester bonds in the presence of ATP between double-stranded DNAs with 3’-hydroxyl and 5’-phosphate termini. The enzyme also catalyses the joining of RNA either to DNA or to RNA strands in a duplex molecule, but will not join single-stranded nucleic acids.
 
Applications

• Ligation of cohesive- and blunt- ended DNA fragments for cloning.
• Sealing nicks in double-stranded DNA.

Features

• Catalyses the transfer of the g-phosphate from ATP to the 5’-terminus of polynucleotides or to mononucleotides bearing a 3’-phosphate group.
 
Description

T4 Polynucleotide Kinase is purified from recombinant E.coli strain JM109, which overproduces T4 PNK. The enzyme is widely used to end-label short oligonucleotide probes and both DNA and RNA molecules for sequence determination.
 
Applications

• 5’ labelling of oligonucleotides for use as probes and sequencing primers.
• 5’ labelling of single-stranded DNA and RNA molecules for use as probes.
• Sequencing of DNA protein footprinting.
• End-labelling of DNA and RNA molecules for sequence determination.
 
Storage Conditions

The product can be stored for 6 months at -20ΊC in a constant-temperature freezer.

  • Free of DNase and RNase activities.
  • Supplied with 10x Reaction Buffer.
     
Source

E.coli carrying an overexpressed gene of Uracil-DNA-Glycosilase from E.coli.
 
Description

Removal of Uracil from DNA.
Uracil-DNA-Glycosilase (UDGase) catalyses the release of Uracil from single- or double-stranded DNA containing Uracil, but not from RNA. Removes carryover contaminations that can lead to false positives during DNA amplification.
 
Applications

All kinds of PCR where preventing the carryover of contaminations is crucial, including RT-PCR, Real Time PCR and Site-directed mutagenesis.
 
Unit Definition

One unit is the amount of enzyme that catalyses the release of 60΅mol of uracil per minute from double-stranded DNA containing Uracil.
 
Reaction Buffers

10x Reaction Buffer:
0.25M Tris-Cl, 1mM EDTA, 10mM DTT, pH8.0. Incubate at 37°C.
