Background

T4 DNA ligase is a type of DNA ligase. DNA ligase catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester bonds at single-stranded DNA breaks in double-stranded DNA in vivo. DNA ligase has important biological functions in organisms. In DNA repair and recombination, DNA ligase plays a role in connecting gaps. In the process of DNA replication, the synthesis of the lagging strand is discontinuous, and DNA ligase connects the discontinuous DNA strand into a continuous DNA strand. It does not contain DNA endonuclease, exonuclease and phosphatase, and does not contain RNA enzyme.

Components

Storage Solution: 400U/μl T4 DNA Ligase、10 mM Tris-HCl、50 mM KCl、1 mM DTT、0.1 mM EDTA、50% Glycerol (pH 7.4 @ 25°C) 10*Reaction Buffer: 500 mM Tris-HCl、100 mM MgCl2、10 mM ATP、100 mM DTT (pH 7.5 @ 25°C)

Protocol

1、Set up the following reaction in a microcentrifuge tube on ice. Add the following components in sequence. Note that the table shows a ligation using1. a molar ratio of 1:5 vector to insert for the indicated DNA sizes.

Components

Volume 20μl

10* T4 DNA Ligase Buffer

2 μl

Vector DNA (such as pET-28a 5369bp)

50ng

Insert DNA (530bp)

25ng

Nuclease-free water

Up to 20 μL

T4 DNA Ligase

1μl

2. Gently mix the reaction through the up and down pipette, and inhale the liquid briefly.

3. For sticky ends, incubate at 16°C overnight or at room temperature for 10 minutes.

4. For blunt ends or single base overhangs, incubate overnight at 16°C or room temperature for 2 hours (alternatively, high concentrations of T4DNA ligase can be used for 10 minutes of ligations).

5. Chill on ice and transform 1-5 μl of the reaction into competent cells.

Guidelines

1. ATP is an essential cofactor in the reaction. This is in contrast to E. coli DNA Ligase, which requires NAD as a cofactor. 

2. If T4 DNA Ligase is to be diluted, it is recommended that it be diluted with 50% glycerol in storage buffer and stored at -20°C. 3. Room temperature ligation

Unit Definition

One unit is the amount of enzyme required to ligate 50% of the HindIII-digested λ DNA fragments [DNA 5´-end concentration of 0.12 µM (300 μg/ml)] within 30 minutes at 16°C in a 20 µl reaction system and in 1X T4 DNA Ligase Reaction Buffer.

Not terrible, but I won't be repurchasing
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
2.5 stars from me. I've been using this as a near-daily sunscreen for 3 months. I like it better than some other sunscreens I've used, but I'm dragging my feet to use the rest of the bottle haha. And I definitely won't repurchase. I'm hoping there's a magical sunscreen out there waiting for me that I love... Pros: It doesn't leave a whitecast, it doesn't pill, it presumably blocks the sun! Cons: If I put it anywhere near my eyes it will get in them, I will taste it in my mouth if it's applied anywhere near my mouth, it stays shiny throughout the day, I feel like I'm not allowed to touch my face (This may just be all sunscreens though)

Perfect Travel Size TSA approved size
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: SPF 50
I recently bought the Coppertone SPORT Sunscreen SPF 50 Lotion in travel size for my son’s first trip to Cancun alone, and I have to say, it was a fantastic choice! Whether you're headed to a sunny beach, a day of fishing, or just need reliable protection from the sun, this sunscreen delivers. Here’s my review based on its performance during the trip: Convenience and Travel-Friendly: The travel size is perfect for anyone on the go. It’s small enough to meet TSA guidelines for carry-ons, so you don’t have to worry about checking luggage or dealing with oversized bottles at security. My son was able to easily pack it in his carry-on without any hassle. Additionally, the compact size makes it super convenient to throw into a pocket or backpack for a day of fishing, beach trips, or any outdoor adventure. Sun Protection: The SPF 50 provides excellent protection from harmful UVA and UVB rays, which is especially important for long hours spent in the sun. Cancun’s sun can be intense, and my son was out in the elements for several hours each day (and I wasn't there to remind him to reapply sunscreen), whether he was fishing, swimming, or just relaxing at the beach. He didn’t get burned once!! As a mother of a redheaded 18 year old son I've spent the past 18 years of my life ensuring he wasn't scorched by the sun and Coppertone has yet to let us down! Water Resistance: The water-resistant formula is a huge plus, especially in places like Cancun, where you’ll likely be in and out of the water. My son spent plenty of time swimming and snorkeling, and the sunscreen stayed put. It lasted through sweating, splashing, and even sea water exposure without needing constant reapplication. It’s perfect for active outdoor activities, whether you're swimming, surfing, or just sweating it out in the sun. Mother approved!!

Dries clear, moisturizing, silky, great value
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I have fair to light combination skin. I use this on my body, but not my face. It goes on very thick and white, but sinks into the skin lightning fast (within just a few seconds), and it becomes completely invisible. It leaves my skin moisturized and looking and feeling silky. Best body sunscreen I've ever tried. And I love that it is water resistant! I find it too heavy and moisturizing to use on my face, but people with dry skin would probably love it for the face, too. I imagine it would be fantastic for them under makeup. The price per ounce is very reasonable, making it a great value.
