Stratagene High-Efficiency DNA Topoisomerase I PCR Cloning The new Stratagene innovative cloning systems have facilitated the cloning and characterization of genes for over 20 years. With our StrataClone™ PCR Cloning Kits, cloning both UA and blunt-end PCR products is now easier, faster, and more reliable than conventional PCR cloning methods. PCR cloning typically involves multiple laboratory procedures such as gel purification, restriction enzyme digestion, blunt-end polishing, dephosphorylation, and overnight ligation reactions all catalyzed by separate proteins. In addition to being time-consuming, these procedures can be difficult to perform, sometimes requiring several attempts to get your clone of interest. Topoisomerase-based cloning saves time and money with simple primer design, no PCR clean-up, and an easy three-step process. Simply add your PCR product to the vector mix, incubate 5 minutes at room temperature, and transform ligated DNA into competent cells. With our >95% insert positive guarantee, you are sure to get your clone the first time every time. Five Kits for a Variety of Cloning Needs The StrataClone product family now includes blunt-end PCR cloning, in addition to our original UA cloning kit, for both long and short amplicons. StrataClone Blunt PCR Cloning Kits offer the same topoisomerase I technology with the easy three-step process and >95% insert positive guarantee. The StrataClone Combo PCR Cloning Kit contains reagents and competent cells for 10 UA and 10 blunt-end cloning reactions. Our StrataClone™ PCR Cloning Systems exploit the combined efforts of two enzymes, Vaccinia DNA topoisomerase I and bacteriophage P1 cre-recombinase. DNA Topoisomerase I and Cre Recombinase Our StrataClone PCR cloning systems exploit the combined efforts of two enzymes, DNA topoisomerase I from Vaccinia virus and Cre recombinase from bacteriophage P1. In Vaccinia, DNA topoisomerase I assists in DNA replication by relaxing and rejoining DNA strands. The enzyme’s site-specific endonuclease activity generates linear DNA with defined termini, and the DNA ligase activity closes the strand when replication is complete. When topoisomerase 1 cleaves a phosphodiester backbone of the DNA duplex, a covalent DNA – enzyme intermediate is formed, which conserves bond energy to be used for religating the cleaved DNA back to the original strand or to a heterologous DNA acceptor. The site-specific Cre recombinase enzyme catalyzes DNA recombination between asymmetric 8-bp core regions of two loxP recognition sequences. The StrataClone PCR cloning kit was used to clone PCR fragments from a common fluorescent protein (664 bp), gamma-globin (1.8 kb), beta-globin (3.5 kb), and two fragments from human alpha-1-antitrypsin (6 kb and 9.2 kb). We used undiluted PCR reaction mix (2 ul) to clone PCR fragments 1-3. Larger PCR products 4 and 5 were gel purified prior to cloning. PCR fragment 1 was amplified from plasmid DNA, fragment 2 from first-strand cDNA, and fragments 3, 4, and 5 were amplified from human genomic DNA. PCR was performed using our Taq2000™ DNA Polymerase (664bp and 1.8kb), Easy-A® High-Fidelity PCR Cloning enzyme (3.5kb), and TaqPlus® Long PCR System (6 and 9.2 kb). Colonies were picked at random and screened by restriction digests to verify results. Circularization after Transformation The StrataClone PCR Cloning vector mix contains DNA arms charged with topoisomerase I on one end and loxP recombination sequences on the other. The topoisomerase-charged ends have a modified uridine overhang for direct ligation of Taq-amplified PCR products. When your PCR product is added to the mix, the DNA topoisomerase I ligates the vector arms to the PCR product resulting in a linear molecule (vector arm – PCR product – vector arm). The ligated DNA is then transformed, with no clean-up steps required, into our highefficiency competent cell line engineered to transiently express Cre recombinase. The linear DNA is circularized by the Cre recombinase at the loxP sites and the recombinant vector is amplified in an overnight incubation. Blue/white screening allows quick identification of insert-positive clones.
