DNA Cloning - Experimental Procedures

  • Chapter
Basic Techniques in Molecular Biology

Part of the book series: Springer Lab Manuals ((SLM))

Abstract

This chapter describes procedures used in blunt-end and cohesive-end cloning of a single DNA fragment.Chapter l3 deocribes theoretical considerations of cloning procedures. The required tasks for cloning are divided into separate procedures that can be performed at different times. The procedures described are
