Quick t4 dna ligase

Manufactured by New England Biolabs
Sourced in United States

The Quick T4 DNA Ligase is a high-performance enzyme used for the rapid and efficient ligation of DNA fragments. It catalyzes the formation of a phosphodiester bond between the 5'-phosphate and 3'-hydroxyl termini of double-stranded DNA. The enzyme exhibits rapid ligation activity, allowing for quick and reliable DNA assembly.

RNA-Seq Library Preparation Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA-Seq libraries were prepared as described by Zhong et al.57 (link) with minor modifications. Briefly, 5 μg of total RNA was used for poly(A) RNA capture using Dynabeads Oligo (dT)25 (Invitrogen), fragmented at 94 °C for 5 minutes and eluted. The first-strand cDNA was synthesized using reverse transcriptase SuperScript III (Invitrogen) with random primers and dNTP, whereas the second-strand cDNA was generated using DNA polymerase I (Enzymatics) using dUTP. After end-repair (Enzymatics), dA-tailing with Klenow 3′-5′ (Enzymatics) and adapter ligation (Quick T4 DNA Ligase, NEB), the dUTP-containing second-strand was digested by uracil DNA glycosylase (Enzymatics). The resulting first-strand adaptor-ligated cDNA was used for PCR enrichment (NEBNext High-Fidelity PCR Master Mix, NEB) for 14 cycles. Indexed libraries were pooled and sequenced.

The barcoded dsDNA was purified using AMPure beads (bead: DNA, 1:1 volumetric ratio), repaired by dA-tailing end prepped, purified (bead: DNA, 1.6:1), and adapter ligated by using 60 μl of 700 ng pooled (equal volume) barcoded sample, 10 μl of Adapter Mix (AMX 1D), 20 μl of NEBNext Quick Ligation Reaction Buffer (5X) and 10 μl of Quick T4 DNA Ligase (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA). The reaction mixture was mixed gently by flicking the tube, and incubated for 10 min at RT. After bead purifying the prepared DNA library was eluted in 15 μl of elution buffer.
A FLO-MIN106 R9.4 flow cell (27 (link)) was equilibrated to RT for 10 min and then primed with running buffer as per manufacturer's instructions. The DNA libraries were prepared by combining 12 μL of the library pool with 2.5 μL NFW, 35 μL RBF (Running Buffer Fuel), and 25.5 μL library loading beads. After the MinION Platform QC run, the DNA library was loaded into the MinION flow cell via the SpotON port. The standard 1D sequencing protocol was initiated using the MinKNOW software v.5.12.

To sequence the pool, an aliquot of the purified tagged pool plasmid DNA (∼0.5 μg) was digested with NotI-HF (New England Biolabs, R3189), gel purified, self-circularized using Quick T4 DNA Ligase (New England Biolabs, M2200) and gel purified again to isolate the self-ligated products using E-gel EX 1% agarose gels (Thermo Fisher Scientific, G401001). Next, fragments for Illumina sequencing were generated by inverse PCR performed as an emulsion PCR (ePCR) using an ePCR kit (Chimerx, 3600) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Illumina sequencing adapters were ligated to PCR products by standard A-tailing and enrichment PCR. Prepared samples were sequenced using a MiSeq (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA, USA) and MiSeq Reagent Kit 600 cycle v3 (Illumina, MS-102-3003). The FASTQ files for each pool were analyzed with custom Python scripts to check each read-pair's barcode identities, perfect sequence match to a composite part design and uniqueness of the barcodes to one design. Full details on sequencing preparation, MiSeq sequencing and data analysis are provided in Supplementary Data.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
