E. coli DNA Ligase catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester bonds in the presence of β-NAD between double-stranded DNAs with 3´ hydroxyl and 5´ phosphate cohesive termini. Single-stranded nucleic acids are not substrates for this enzyme.

Applications:
Second-strand cDNA synthesis (1). T4 DNA Ligase alternative when blunt-end ligation is not required (2).

Source:
Purified from E. coli 594 (Su-) bearing λ lysogen gt4lop-11 lig+ S7 (3).

Performance and Quality Testing:
Endodeoxyribonuclease and 3´ and 5´ exodeoxyribonuclease assays; ligation efficiency tested.

Unit Definition:
One unit is the amount of enzyme required to give 50% ligation of Hind III-digested λ DNA in 30 min. at 16°C in a final volume of 20 μl containing a 5´ termini concentration of 0.12 ´M (300 μg/ml).

Unit Reaction Conditions:
18.8 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.3), 90.6 mM KCl, 4.6 mM MgCl2 , 3.8 mM DTT, 0.15 mM λ-NAD, 10 mM (NH4 )2 SO4 in 20 μl for 1 h at 16°C.
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
