一种PCR产物克隆零背景T载体的构建

Construction of a Zero-background T-vector for Cloning PCR Products

  • 摘要: 为解决平末端加T法构建的T载体,在PCR产物克隆时连接效率低、阳性克隆筛选困难的问题,本研究在利用Taq DNA聚合酶末端转移酶活性对线性化平末端pBluescript SK(+)载体3'-端进行加T反应后,使用T4 DNA连接酶处理加T后pBS载体,使3'-端未加T平末端载体重新形成超螺旋状态,而3'-端加T载体则保持线性化状态,在琼脂糖电泳时切胶回收3 000 bp处DNA片段,成为pBS-T载体。使用构建的pBS-T载体分别克隆500 bp和1 000 bp PCR片段,pBS-T载体克隆效率达到100%,实现了对PCR产物的零背景克隆。

     

    Abstract: This experiment aimed to improve the shortcomings of low ligation efficiency and weak positive selection in cloning PCR products with T-vector.The approach called for an addition of T-overhang to a blunt-end plasmid. Firstly, a 3'-T overhang was attached to the blunt-end pBluescript SK (+) plasmid utilizing a terminal transferase, Taq DNA polymerase. Secondly, thepBS vector was ligated by T4 DNA ligase to form thesupercoiled blunt-end pBS plasmid without a 3'-T overhang, whereas the plasmidwith a 3'-T overhang remained linear in appearance. Finally, the DNA fragment of 3 000 bp, which was pBST-vector for cloning PCR products, could be purified byagarose gel electrophoresis followed by usinga gel extraction kit. The 500 bp and 1 000 bp DNA fragments were cloned into pBS T-vector with a100% cloning efficiency. It appeared that the newly developed procedures provided a valid zero-background T-vector for cloning PCR products.
