Remarks:
As usually when pipetting enzyme reactions keep the tubes on ice during all manipulations. Cip-treat a digested vector cut with only a single enzyme. If the vector was double-digested: phenolize prior to ligating. Use equimolar amounts of vector and insert. As a rule we use 50 ng vector (3 kb) and 50 ng insert (3 kb). More values are given in the table below. Recalculate accordingly when using different-length vectors. Don't use less than 8 ng or so for fragments smaller than 0.5 kb. In the case of small fragments circularization occurs and removes the F from the rxn.
