T4 DNA ligase, fragments ligation for cohesive or blunt end, nicks repair
Featured Products
T4 DNA Ligase is a single-stranded polypeptide with a molecular weight of 55.3 kDa, which can catalyze the formation of phosphodiester bonds at adjacent 5’ phosphate and 3’ hydroxyl ends on double-stranded DNA or RNA. The ligase has no catalytic activity for single-stranded nucleic acids, and its catalytic reaction requires ATP as a cofactor.
T4 DNA ligase is versatile, can not only bind DNA fragments to cohesive or blunt ends, but also repair single-stranded nicks on double-stranded DNA, double-stranded RNA, or DNA/RNA hybrids. It is commonly used for connection of DNA fragments with vectors, linkers or adaptors; nicks repair; and linear DNA self-cyclization.
