| Step 1 : |
DNA preparation |
| |
Separates high molecular weight DNA (100~400kb) from
the host. |
| |
|
| Step 2 :
| Insert preparation
1 |
| |
Random shearing: Secures the insert with
the desired size through size selection in agarose
gel
after random shearing using a nebulizer. |
| |
|
| Step 3 : |
Insert preparation
2 |
| |
Processes the insert to be ligated to the
vector appropriately. |
| |
|
| Step 4 : |
Ligation |
| |
After ligation to cosmid vector, packages
the recombinant cosmid DNA into bacteriophage lamda
particles
using Lamda packaging extract in vitro and constructs
a library by transducing them to an appropriate host. |
