说明书:
T4 DNA
T4 DNA Ligase Recombinant
Catalog No. ENZ-286
Synonyms:
DNA ligase 4, EC 6.5.1.1, DNA ligase IV, Polydeoxyribonucleotide synthase [ATP] 4.
Description:
T4 DNA Ligase catalyzes the formation of a phosphodiester bond between juxtaposed 5′ -phosphate and 3′ -hydroxyl termini in duplex DNA or RNA. This enzyme will join blunt end and cohesive end termini as well as repair single stranded nicks in duplex DNA, RNA or DNA/RNA hybrids.
Source:
Escherichia Colilambda lysogen NM 989
Physical Appearance:
Sterile filtered liquid formulation having a concentration of 167,000 U/ml.
Formulation:
50mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.8 at 25°C), 10mM MgCl2, 10mM DTT, 1mM ATP, 25 μg/ml BSA and DNA (0.1 to 1 μM in 5´ termini). Οptimal ligation occurs at 16oC.
Storage Buffer:
50mM KCl, 10mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 0.1mM EDTA, 1mM DTT, 200 μg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol. Store at -20oC.
Stability:
Two years when stored at –20°C, 2 weeks at 4°C.
Unit Defenition:
1. One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to give 50% ligation of Hind III fragments of λ DNA (5´ DNA termini concentration of 0.12 µM, 300- µg/ml) in a total reaction volume of 20 μl in 30 minutes at 16°C in 1X T4 DNA Ligase Reaction Buffer.
2.One Weiss unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to catalyze the exchange of 1 nmol of 32P from pyrophosphate to ATP, into Norit-adsorbable material in 20 minutes at 37°C.
Biological Activity:
One Weiss unit is equivalent to circa 67 cohesive-end ligation units.
T4 DNA Ligase is strongly inhibited by NaCl or KCl if the concentration is > 200mM.
·Ligation of blunt-ended and single-base pair overhang fragments requires about 50 times as much enzyme to achieve the same extent of ligation as cohesive-end DNA fragments. Blunt-end ligation may be enhanced by addition of PEG 4000 (10% w/v final concentration) or hexamine chloride, or by reducing the ATP concentration to 50μM.
·To dilute T4 DNA Ligase that will subsequently be stored at –200C, 50% glycerol storage buffer should be used; to dilute for immediate use, 1x T4 DNA Ligase reaction buffer can be used.
Heat Inactivation:
T4 DNA Ligase can be inactivated by incubation at 65oC for 10 minutes.
Quality Control:
Purified free of contaminating endonucleases and exonucleases. Each lot of T4 DNA ligase is also tested in a mock cloning assay, which reveals any damage to the ligated DNA termini. Greater than 99.9% of the termini remain undamaged in this assay.
Exonuclease Activity:
Incubation of a 50μl reaction containing 13,000 units of T4 DNA Ligase with 1μg of a mixture of single and double-stranded [3H] E. coli DNA (200,000 cpm/μg) for 4 hours at 37ºC released < 0.3% of the total radioactivity.
Endonuclease Activity:
Incubation of a 50μl reaction containing 13,000 units of T4 DNA Ligase with 1μg of ΦX174 RF I DNA for 4 hours at 37ºC resulted in < 5% conversion to RFII as determined by agarose gel electrophoresis.
Nuclease Activity:
Incubation of 13,000 units for 18 hours in assay buffer (without ATP) with Hind III fragments of λ DNA yielded a clear and sharp banding pattern on agarose gels.
Applications:
Cloning of restriction fragments.
Joining linkers and adapters to blunt-ended DNA
