ASSEMBLY of MV10, ATF2, and Gal4DB/mCherry

  • LCR Assembly



LCR Assembly


PNK treatment Overview: Mix double-stranded DNA fragments, treat with PNK to add phosphate groups

Procedure:

  • Dilute the purified dsDNA to 30 fmol/μL (30 nM)
    • The volume of purified DNA (x) you will need to dilute in a final volume of 50 μL = length in bp ÷ measured ng/μL * 30 fmol/μL * 650 fg/fmol dsDNA ÷ 1,000,000 fg/ng * 50 μL final volume.
    • Formula: x μL = length in bp ÷ measured ng/μL * 0.0195 ng/μL * 50μL
  • Use 2.0 μL of each diluted dsDNA per 10 μL PNK reaction
  • Mix the appropriate amount of dsDNA fragments together and treat with Polynucleotide kinase to add 5'-phosphates (see table below)
