Abstract：
:T4 RNA ligase catalyzes the ATP-dependent addition of a single 2'-deoxyribonucleoside 3',5'-bisphosphate to the 3'-hydroxyl of an oligodeoxyribonucleotide. The bisphosphate is joined to the deoxyoligomer by a 3' leads to 5' phosphodiester bond and the product, which is terminated by a 3'-phosphate, is one nucleotide longer than the substrate. Bisphosphates of dAdo, dCyd, dGuo, dThd, and dUrd are donors and oligodeoxyribonucleotides with dA, dC, dG, dT, or dU 3' termini act as acceptors. The preferred residue for both donor and acceptor is dCyd. Deoxyoligomers from 3 to 12 residues in length are active as acceptors. To obtain good yields, high concentration of enzyme, long incubation time at low temperature, and manganous rather than Mg(II) ion are required. Under optimal conditions, yields calculated with respect to deoxyoligomer converted to product vary from 40 to greater than 95%. The turnover number of the enzyme for DNA joining is extremely low but, because the preparation is nearly free of DNases, there is less than 3% degradation of substrate or product after 6 days of reaction. We anticipate that this reaction will serve as the basis for a method for the stepwise enzymatic synthesis of DNA of defined sequence.
