    dephosphorylation chew up
    Posted by: Jula (IP Hidden, New member, 4)

    Hello,

    I am having a slight problem constructing a cosmid library. Whenever I try to do a dephosphorylation there seems to be hardly any DNA left at the end. I used 0.1U CIAP/20pmol DNA.

    Therefore I run out of vector pretty fast, too. Now I was wondering whether there are any tricks not to loose all you DNA or whether I can grow some more of my 7.9kb cosmid by transforming it into the XL1-Blue cells or do I have to do an electroporation because it is too big?

    Any suggestions are very welcome.
    Thanks.

    I searched the troubleshooting database using keywords dephosphorylation or CIP and it returned 41 hits. Hope it is helpful to you. Click for the result -> [biowww.net]
