| Description |
Various methods of ligation are currently available and routinely used by molecular biologists, such as blunt end ligation, cohesive end (two and four overhangs), and ligation of Taq polymerase-derived products. However, there is no efficient method for the cloning of DNA fragments with 2-bp overhangs. We present a simple method for the efficient ligation of DNA fragments with 2-bp overhanging ends, ranging in size from 0.7 to 2.5 kbp. Our method involves the initial heating and flash freezing of the vector-insert DNA mix, and a subsequent unique ligation reaction. This method provides a new molecular biology tool for researchers.
