Description
E. coli DNA ligase can catalyze the formation of phosphodiester bonds between the 5’-PO4 ends and 3’-OH ends of adjacent DNA strands. It exhibits almost no detectable activity for blunt-end substrate DNA. The optimal pH for this reaction is 7.5-8.0 (Tris-HCl buffer), and NAD is required as a coenzyme. Unlike T4 DNA Ligase, which can join both sticky and blunt ends, this enzyme only catalyzes the ligation between cohesive-ended DNA molecules. However, in the presence of PEG and high concentrations of monovalent cations, it can also ligate blunt-ended DNA. Additionally, this product cannot catalyze the ligations between DNA and RNA or between RNA molecules.This enzyme can be used for ligation reactions in NGS methylation library and can also be employed in the Okayama-Berg method for cDNA cloning.
