The Zero Blunt™ PCR Cloning Kit offers an easy method for high-efficiency (>80%) cloning of blunt-end PCR products amplified with proof-reading, thermostable DNA polymerases. The Zero Blunt™ PCR Cloning Kit uses the multipurpose cloning vector pCR™-Blunt and ExpressLink™ T4 DNA Ligase to generate a ligation product in a five-minute, room-temperature ligation step.
Features of the Zero Blunt™ Cloning™ Kit with pCR™-Blunt vector: • Fast & convenient—5-minute, room-temperature ligation • Efficient—ccdB gene for positive selection results in >80% clones with correct insert • Flexible—choice of kanamycin or Zeocin™ resistance for flexible antibiotic selection
The pCR™-Blunt vector provides: • EcoR I sites flanking the PCR product insertion site for excision of inserts • T7 promoter/primer site for in vitro RNA transcription and sequencing • M13 forward and reverse primer sites for sequencing or PCR screening
How Zero Blunt™ PCR Cloning Works The Zero Blunt™ PCR Cloning Kit is designed to clone blunt PCR fragments (or any blunt DNA fragment) with a low background of non-recombinants. The pCR™-Blunt vector contains the lethal E. coliccdB gene fused to the C-terminus of LacZα (Bernard et al., 1994). Ligation of a blunt PCR fragment disrupts expression of the lacZα-ccdB gene fusion permitting growth of only positive recombinants upon transformation. Cells that contain non-recombinant vector are killed when the transformation mixture is plated.
Kit Configurations The Zero Blunt™ PCR Cloning Kit is offered in a variety of configurations: with One Shot™ TOPO10 Chemically Competent E. coli (K2700-20 and K2700-40) and without competent cells (K2750-20 and K2750-40) in 20- and 40- reaction kit sizes.
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

구성 및 보관
Zero Blunt™ PCR cloning kits contain linearized pCR™-Blunt vector, ExpressLink™ T4 DNA ligase , 5X ExpressLink™ T4 DNA ligase buffer, control template, dNTPs, sterile water, and M13 forward and reverse primers. Competent cell kits contain One Shot™ chemically competent E. coli, S.O.C. medium, and a supercoiled control plasmid.
Store the One Shot™ E. coli at -80°C. Store all other components at -20°C. All reagents are guaranteed stable for 6 months when properly stored.
