General description
T4 DNA Ligase catalyzes the formation of a phosphodiester bond between the terminal 5′ phosphate and a 3′ hydroxyl groups of duplex DNA or RNA. The enzyme efficiently joins blunt and cohesive ends and repairs single stranded nicks in duplex DNA, RNA or DNA/RNA hybrids.
Application
Suitable for:
- Restriction cloning
- TA cloning
- Adapter ligation
- NGS library construction
- Other applications requiring high efficiency ligation
Features and Benefits
- Ultra-purification process for ultimate enzyme performance
- Highest quality specifications for ultimate product consistency
- Undetectable DNA and nuclease contamination
