Ability to phosphorylate and ligate in a single step
Degradation of template DNA by DpnI
Fast reaction time (5 minutes)
Combination of 3 enzymatic activities (kinase, ligase, DpnI) in a single enzyme mix
Also available as a kit:withandwithout competent cells
KLD Enzyme Mix is a unique blend of Kinase, Ligase and DpnI enzymes. This formulation allows efficient phosphorylation, intramolecular ligation/circularization and template removal in a single 5 minute reaction step at room temperature. This master mix is a component of the Q5 Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kits and it has been designed for use with fragments that have been PCR-amplified by Q5 Hot Start High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase.
Q5 Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit Overview This kit is designed for rapid and efficient incorporation of insertions, deletions and substitutions into double-stranded plasmid DNA. The first step is an exponential amplification using standard primers and a master mix formulation of Q5 Hot Start High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase. The second step involves incubation with a unique enzyme mix containing a kinase, a ligase and DpnI. Together, these enzymes allow for rapid circularization of the PCR product and removal of the template DNA. The last step is a high-efficiency transformation into chemically competent cells (provided).
