Description:
The BstEII digest of lambda DNA (cI857 ind 1 Sam 7) yields 14 fragments suitable for use as molecular weight standards for agarose gel electrophoresis (1). The approximate mass of DNA in each of the bands is provided (assuming a 1.0 μg load) for approximating the mass of DNA in comparably intense samples of similar size.





Lambda DNA-BstE II Digest visualized by ethidium bromide staining. 1.0% agarose gel.



Effective Size Range: 117 bp to 8,454 bp

Source:
The phage is isolated from the heat-inducible lysogen E. coli λ cI857 S7 and then isolated from the purified phage by phenol extraction and dialyzed.The double-stranded DNA is digested to completion with BstEII, phenol extracted and dialyzed against 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0) 1 mM EDTA.

Notes


General notes:
  1. 1X Gel Lodaing Dye, Blue:
    2.5% Ficoll-400
    11 mM EDTA
    3.3 mM Tris-HCL (pH 8.0@25°C)
    0.017% SDS
    0.015% bromophenol blue
Usage notes:
  1. For long term storage, store at -20°C. If samples need to be diluted, use TE or other buffer of minimal ionic strength. DNA may denature if diluted in dH20 and subsequently heated. Temperatures > 60°C may cause denaturation.
  2. The cohesive ends of fragments 1 and 4 may be separated by heating to 60°C for 3 minutes.

FAQs


  1. What are the overhangs on the DNA ladder fragments? Can I end-label them using the T4 polynucleotide kinase (PNK)? What about the Klenow fragment?
  2. How can I quantify the amount of DNA in each band of a marker?
  3. Why does my Lambda DNA molecular weight marker appear smeared and not represent the correct banding pattern?
