PCR products cloning
I'm looking for an efficient way to clone 1.6 and 2 kb PCR products into
pET 20b(+) vector,after trying in vain with cohesive end[EcoR1 ,Hind111]
ligation for months.

Did you add alkaline phosphatase after vector digestion. If you don't remove the phosphates the vector can re ligate on itself and this will interfere with successive ligation and result in the increased number of colonies. Rating: n/a

I have been having the same problem. Although I am not using the same sites (i'm using Kpn and EcoR1 sites) I am getting practically 0 colonies. I have yet to find a solution to the problem. The last solution I tried was to find someone that had successfully cloned a gene into pYES2 and cut it out and then subsequently place my gene into it. However, the transformation failed.

Jon,
I have successfully used the Zymoclean Gel DNA recovery kit. It has worked pretty good for me every time I have used it. Rating: Very Good

is it sure that the PCR products generated by Taq polymerase produces sticky ends. to get a blunt end what are the enzymes to be used? Rating: Very Good

hai everybody
proplem,
i have cloned my PCR product size of 700bp size by using pPROE. my restriction site is pst1 & PamH1. lication carried out by using T4 DNA ligase. i got clones with out my insert gene. what i do to get positive clones Rating: Good

Hi everyone!
I have trouble cloning two PCR fragments of about 800bp, each one that are coming from a 5īRACE. I have done the same things that I did for the 3īRACE products, but I still have no success. I am using TOPO vector and I had to purified the products from gel, just like with 3īRACE products.
Thanks a lot! Rating: n/a

Anyone that can tell me how to overcome the problem of PCR fragments (between 200-500bp) not getting into vector (i.e. b-gal basic) is more than welcome!!!! I'm trying for months and even the zero-blunt Topo cloning seems not to work... Any suggestions from people with experience would be helpful. Rating: Good

Iam trying to clone a 1.6kb plasmodium DNA in pGEX vector, after digesting with EcoRI and XhoI, I tried to ligate into pGEX and transform competent cells without success only once did I see a single colony grew on ampicillin plate. What could be the prob? any suggestions Rating: Good

Hi!!
i am facing problem in cloning PCR generated fregment of 522bp, it is amplified with Deepvent polymerase(NEB), and have terminal sites(xhoI, KpnI), i am trying to clone in sk+, but not get success from months, even tryied for blunt end cloning but no success
please help
thanks in advance Rating: Good

Hi,
I am having trouble inserting a second PCR product into a vector that already contains a promoter in the MCS. This is a cis element that I want to insert outside the MCS. Only trouble is, even after dephos. and linearization of the vector, it still seems to re-ligate time and time again. Any feedback would be helpful! Rating: Good

I amplify the TPA gene by using diagnostic primer but i am still unable to get the band of TPA gene by using the primers used for cloned them in pet vector
please guide me what will be the problem as i also do the gradient PCR for this gene Rating: Good

Hi! I'm trying to clone small inserts of DNA (50pb) digested with two different enzymes into the pGEX vector. I purified my digested fragment from PAGE 8%. I then ligated it to the digested vector but i don't obtain any transformants.
Has anyone cloned such small fragments ??
Thanks Rating: Good

Hi! I'm trying to clone cDNA into TOPO vectors, but it seems that the DNA degrades during or after purification from agarose gels.
If someone could give an advice it would be good!

Hi to U all,
I've been trying to clone a 2,5 kb fragment into a pHannibal which has been double digested by Xho1 and Kpn1? The problem is that I am not getting any transformants.
I request for a help to enableme undersatnd what is happeneing.

Dear friends,
I have a problem. I am trying to insert a 2.1kb gene into pYES2 (5,9kb) using XhoI and BamHI. The efficiency of tranformation is almost 0. (I have maximum 8 clones in 4 agar-plates) Any of you have any idea why?
kind regards, Momeu Rating: Good

Hiya all. I've been trying to clone a PCR fragment into a vector which has been double digested. The vector size is 10kb and the insert size is 0.35kb. The problem is that I am not getting any transformants, though the control (single digested DNA of both enzymes, self ligated) are showing good efficiencies of transformation. Also the double digested vector, which has been subjected to self ligation is not showing any transformants (as expected). How do I increase the efficiency of transformation? Rating: Good

HI to you all;
Problem.
I have cloned my gene in pmosBlue vector, however i need to confirm that the gene is their by restriction digest. I have the restriction map and chose my enzymes carefully those that don't appear in the insert. However on restricting i get 2 band one of which is of the size of my insert, the other band is twice the insert size. And in addition i get the size of the backbone vector of the expeted size. Now my worry is this extra band, What could be the explanation?
I request for a help to enableme undersatnd what is happeneing.
Regards

I have trouble getting DNA out of the PAGE gel.
I have tried the Qiagen kit, elute gel slices with Sodim acetate at 50 degree over night.....none of the techniques worked.... Rating: Good

I have trouble cloning my PCR fragments. These fragments come from an amplification that gives lots of bands but I have to clone the bands between 300 and 1000 bp. So I have to cut the gel and make an extraction. My PCR is performed with Taq and I have tried TA cloning, as well as blunt cloning after treating the PCR products with T4 DNA polymerase and pBlueScript (blunt cut) with alkaline phospatase. None of the techniques worked... Rating: Good

Try cutting the pET with a blunt cutter, SmaI or EcoRV are in a lot of MCS, then add the PCR product (blunt it first, or amplify with a polymerase that leaves blunt ends - not Taq). When you come to do the ligation, add just a little of the same enzyme...it should elimate negatives.
