Restriction Enzyme Cloning Support
Explore our “Getting Started” and “Troubleshooting” sections for solutions to top inquiries and common problems. Browse through our "Guides and Tools" section to access a comprehensive portfolio of product-related support resources.
Getting started
- I cannot transform my cells right away. Can I store my ligation reaction? If so, at what temperature should I store it?
- What is the difference between ExpressLink T4 DNA Ligase and other T4 DNA ligases?
- I have an older set of enzymes from your company that uses REact buffers. Are these buffers and enzymes interchangeable with the new enzymes?
- For how long do I digest my vector?
- What is the best ratio of insert:vector to use? Is there an equation to calculate this?
Troubleshooting
- I would like to perform a double digest with two different enzymes but the buffers are not compatible.
- I am doing restriction cloning and the enzyme I am using seems to be cutting non-specifically.
- I have cloned my gene into my vector and then transformed into TOP10 cells. I then did a plasmid miniprep followed by digestion of the DNA with Xba I. However, the vector is not cutting correctly.
- I am trying to clone an insert that is supposedly pretty toxic. I used DH5α and TOP10 cells for the transformation and got no colonies on the plate. Do you have any suggestions for me?
