Polyethylene glycol |
polyethylene glycol 6000, 15%, stimulates, when NaCl and KCl are both absent. With 10% polyethylene glycol 6000, both cohesive end ligation and blunt end ligation are increased at high concentrations of salt, 150-200 mM NaCl, or 200-250 mM KCl. With 10% polyethylene glycol 6000, intermolecular and intramolecular ligation occurs at low salt concentrations, 0.1 mM NaCl or 0-150 mM KCl. Only linear oligomers are formed by intermolecular ligation at the high concentrations |
