Multiple Fragment Ligation: The Why and How

#105 — You may be familiar with standard single fragment ligations: insert, vector, ligase—done! But what if you have a complex cloning project with a massive region of DNA to clone? You can’t PCR the whole thing, and you can’t cut the entire thing out from somewhere else. What do you do?

In this episode, we explain the answer: multiple fragment ligation.
