DNA Ligation Kits

Traditional cloning kits from Takara are excellent for every ligation experiment

Options for every ligation experiment - whether you are working with long inserts, blunt ends, high-throughput applications or sensitive cells requiring small reaction volumes.

DNA Ligation Kit for Long Fragments

  • Tool for the cloning of long DNA fragments from 2 kb to 10 kb
  • Contains an optimized ligase buffer system
  • Well suited for BAC library construction
  • Also enabled fast and easy ligation of smaller size DNA inserts

DNA Ligation Kit Mighty Mix

  • Single solution, ready to use 2x ligation mix
  • High efficiency ligations, especially for blunt-ended ligations 
  • This kit is suitable for ligation into TA-vectors
  • Quick reaction time – at 25 °C in 5 minutes, at 16 °C for 30 minutes for both circular and linear DNA ligations 
  • It is compatible with small ligation reaction volumes

Cassettes and Cassette Primers

  • Can be used during PCR cloning of cDNA or genomic DNA
  • In addition to cassette mediated PCR, these products
  • Can be used as cassette primers for PCR and sequencing of cloned DNA

Blunt End Reagent Set

  • For simple and quick preparation of PCR products for cloning into blunt-ended vectors
  • The blunting and 5'-phosphorylation reactions are done simultaneously and in parallel
  • Both blunt- and -dA ended products can be prepared in a single reaction

Quick DNA Ligation Kits

  • Simple and high efficiency ligation of DNA molecules in vitro
  • Optimized buffer system and T4 DNA Ligase enable high transformation efficiency ligation in 30 minutes
  • For general ligation reactions it has good transformation efficiency in 3 minutes

DNA Blunting Kit

  • Allows the conversion of 3´ and 5´ overhangs to blunt or flush ends thanks to activities of T4 DNA Polymerase
