Background

T4 DNA ligase is a type of DNA ligase. DNA ligase catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester bonds at single-stranded DNA breaks in double-stranded DNA in vivo. DNA ligase has important biological functions in organisms. In DNA repair and recombination, DNA ligase plays a role in connecting gaps. In the process of DNA replication, the synthesis of the lagging strand is discontinuous, and DNA ligase connects the discontinuous DNA strand into a continuous DNA strand. It does not contain DNA endonuclease, exonuclease and phosphatase, and does not contain RNA enzyme.

Components

Storage Solution: 400U/μl T4 DNA Ligase、10 mM Tris-HCl、50 mM KCl、1 mM DTT、0.1 mM EDTA、50% Glycerol (pH 7.4 @ 25°C) 10*Reaction Buffer: 500 mM Tris-HCl、100 mM MgCl2、10 mM ATP、100 mM DTT (pH 7.5 @ 25°C)

Protocol

1、Set up the following reaction in a microcentrifuge tube on ice. Add the following components in sequence. Note that the table shows a ligation using1. a molar ratio of 1:5 vector to insert for the indicated DNA sizes.

Components

Volume 20μl

10* T4 DNA Ligase Buffer

2 μl

Vector DNA (such as pET-28a 5369bp)

50ng

Insert DNA (530bp)

25ng

Nuclease-free water

Up to 20 μL

T4 DNA Ligase

1μl

2. Gently mix the reaction through the up and down pipette, and inhale the liquid briefly.

3. For sticky ends, incubate at 16°C overnight or at room temperature for 10 minutes.

4. For blunt ends or single base overhangs, incubate overnight at 16°C or room temperature for 2 hours (alternatively, high concentrations of T4DNA ligase can be used for 10 minutes of ligations).

5. Chill on ice and transform 1-5 μl of the reaction into competent cells.

Guidelines

1. ATP is an essential cofactor in the reaction. This is in contrast to E. coli DNA Ligase, which requires NAD as a cofactor. 

2. If T4 DNA Ligase is to be diluted, it is recommended that it be diluted with 50% glycerol in storage buffer and stored at -20°C. 3. Room temperature ligation

Unit Definition

One unit is the amount of enzyme required to ligate 50% of the HindIII-digested λ DNA fragments [DNA 5´-end concentration of 0.12 µM (300 μg/ml)] within 30 minutes at 16°C in a 20 µl reaction system and in 1X T4 DNA Ligase Reaction Buffer.

Doberman of the Corn: The Movie
Size: One Size, Pattern Name: Corn, Size: One Size, Pattern Name: Corn
My Doberman Godzilla loves this corn. She loves it with every fiber of her being and soul. She is spoiled rotten and has more toys than most children (mostly because if a Doberman does not have things to be entertained by, they will invent their own entertainment that involves the destruction of your home.) She destroyed her first corn plush after about a year. There was some kind of diva like fit and her original corn was in tiny pieces. She was subsequently despondent like a Victorian on a fainting couch so I had to find an emergency corn replacement here on Amazon. I have no idea who the buyer for Amazon is and what made them say: “Oh yes, we MUST sell a big corn plushie for dogs” but I am grateful as hell to the way their possibly deranged mind thinks. Because that person and my Doberman think exactly alike.

Sturdy
Size: 20 x 4 x 4 in, Pattern Name: Pepper
Wanted to wait awhile before writing this review to see how it held up. It is the sturdiest soft toy he has had in while! I love the sound it makes, not loud and annoying like some. Not one tear or seam has come loose and believe me this little Shih Tzu is rough on everything. It is bigger than he is and shakes like nothing else can and stay together. I recommend it for any aggressive pet. I can see a ferret running around with it or a big dog.

Wonder toy!!
Size: 20 x 4 x 4 in, Pattern Name: Banana
This is one of the BEST dog toys ever!!! My Baby Girl just loves it. Totally obsessed. I highly recommend this product if you’re able to handle the squeaky noise. I totally can be I see the joy it brings Also, as a proud Mommy moment Sadie Rae stops squeezing the banana when I say ok Baby Girl Mommy has had enough. 💜💜

Toy provides much fun and hilarity, seam rips.
Size: 20 x 4 x 4 in, Pattern Name: Eggplant, Size: 20 x 4 x 4 in, Pattern Name: Eggplant
So, I kind of bought this on a whim. But our dogs absolutely love this toy, and it provides many moments of hilarity as watching our medium sized dogs tote this giant toy around, whipping it back and forth, hitting themselves with it, is constant entertainment. The squeaker is still working nearly 6 months later, which is amazing. I only took off one star because I have had to perform surgery on this toy multiple times due to the seam coming open, letting the stuffing out, which is a major issue. I have to take it away from them (which they hate) then find time to sew it up until the next spot opens up. If I was smart, I'd just have reinforced the entire seam the first time, but no one said I was smart.
