Abstract (en)

[origin: DE10148607A1] Mutagenesis and cloning of nucleic acids (NA), is new. Mutagenesis and cloning of a nucleic acid (NA), comprises: (a) preparing a circular, double-stranded (ds) NA matrix to be mutated; (b) preparing two oligonucleotides (ON) that each hybridize to one strand of the matrix and have at the 5'-ends a 2-4 base pair (bp) segment, mutually complementary, where at least one ON contains a mutated target sequence; (c) amplifying the matrix using an ON with the mutated target sequence as a primer to create a mutated ds amplicon; (d) trimming the ends of the amplicon to create a product with mutually complementary 5'-overhangs; and (e) ligating the trimmed amplicon to produce a mutated circular NA construct. Independent claims are also included for: (1) a reagent kit for the new method, comprising agents for: (i) NA amplification; (ii) trimming ds NA to create complementary ends; (iii) for ligation; and (iv) optionally for selective removal of methylated DNA; (2) cloning NA fragments into a vector; and (3) reagent kits for the method of (2).
