Abstract
Protocol for blunting ends by 3' overhang removal and fill-in of 3' recessed (5' overhang) ends using T4 DNA Polymerase.

Steps
1. T4 DNA Polymerase can be used in T4 DNA Polymerase can be used in NEBuffers 1.1, 2.1, and CutSmart® Buffer as well as NEBuffers 1, 2, and 4 and T4 DNA Ligase Reaction Buffer. Optimal activity is observed in NEBuffer 2.1. BSA supplementation is recommended when using a buffer that does not already contain BSA. , T4 DNA Polymerase can be used in NEBuffers 1.1, 2.1, and CutSmart® Buffer as well as NEBuffers 1, 2, and 4 and T4 DNA Ligase Reaction Buffer.

Dissolve DNA in any 1X
supplemented with 100micromolar (µM)
.
Note
2.
Add 1 unit of T4 DNA Polymerase per microgram DNA.
3.
Incubate 0h 15m 0s
at 12°C
.
4. See references 1, 2 for information on stopping reaction using EDTA and 75°C.
Stop reaction by adding EDTA to a final concentration of 10millimolar (mM)
.
Note
5. CAUTION : Elevated temperatures, excessive amounts of enzyme, failure to supplement with dNTPs or long reaction times will result in recessed ends due to the 3´→ 5´ exonuclease activity of the enzyme.
Heat for 0h 20m 0s
at 75°C
